all this useless beauty

Of all the people in all the world...

'Of all the people in all the world' is an fascinating art installation which "...uses grains of rice to bring formally abstract statistics to startling and powerful life. "

The results are startling (the biggest pile of rice represents the number of people in the world at the moment that earn less than a dollar a day), tragic (the amount of children in the world who die every year from preventable diseases) to the amusing (appearances from Condoleeza Rice and Tim Rice among others...)

The exhibition is in Birmingham until Sunday - see link here for details.
