“angel” wings as arms appears to have fallen from the sky at around 1:50pm this
afternoon.”…This message was sent by many websites, but the truth is
Art lovers were shocked by a ‘fallen angel’ installation
that was unveiled in Beijing this week.
The extremely realistic work was created by Chinese artists,
Sun Yuan and Peng Yu.
The pair are known for blurring the lines between art and
reality by using materials such as human body fat in their work.
Their latest piece, entitled ‘Angel’, has just been
installed in China’s capital, reported People’s Daily Online
Passersby stare at
latest installation which shows the tension between surrealism and realism
The artists say that their latest installation is designed
to illustrate the tension and changes between surrealism and realism
In a statement on their website, they explained: ‘The angel,
a transcendent being, has become powerless, unable to carry out God’s will, or
to help those who believe in its existence.’
