This artwork is called X- Blind Spot No. 18 which were completed in 2008 by Yang Shaobin from China. The materials that were used for this piece are fibreglass and clay. When I first saw this, I thought that it was a real person and got a shock but then I realised that it was part of the exhibition when people started taking photos of it! I find this quite amazing as he looks extremely life-like. I think the meaning of this sculpture is something to do with the war and how tiresome and long it is as he looks as if he has just come home from the war, is relieved and has taken his hat of as a salute to the war.
