Navo wanted to open one, so I will ease him off the burden. Damien Hirst is on my mind. Two famous installation ones are:

A Thousand Years



As the blog writes:

Although grisly, I found Damien Hirst’s (b. 1965 England) installation ‘A Thousand Years absolutely fascinating. Within a huge glass case, a whole life cycle is going on. From gestation to birth, life to death, (zapped by an insect-o-cutor, what a way to go eh). All is lived out before the eyes of the viewer. A small drama, of infinite importance to the life forms (maggots) that star in it. It made me think about our own life cycle, the importance we place on stuff that in the end, doesn’t really matter. How our time is taken up with the mundane, whilst those, not so lucky, fight for their very survival.

Another you may have seen is the following:

The Physical Impossibility of Death in the Mind of Someone Living
