Miraculous Journey

Continuing today's theme of motherhood, here's the latest from Moneybags Hirst, one of 14 giant bronze sculptures depicting the development of a foetus from gestation to birth: The Miraculous Journey (2013). This is the neonate dancing Gangnam Style. Whoop! Whoop! Its face reminds me of the mekon in Dan Dare.

Religious nutters are outraged, but not by the price (CLICK).
