Exhibition
Of All the People in All the World: UK
Organised by Southbank Centre
Two tonnes of rice. One grain equals one person. A beautifully simple equation for a beautifully simple performance installation by Stan’s Cafe.
Over the course of six days, rice is carefully weighed and placed in labelled piles to represent an array of human population statistics, with one grain representing one person.
Witty, provocative and unexpectedly moving, this powerful work of art helps you see the world in a startling new way.
For this edition, specially created for our Planet Summer season, the work explores humans’ relationship with the planet we all share.
