It's Art for Life's sake!

Blake's shocking, yet hauntingly beautiful sculptures were inspired by his experiences in post-war Vietnam where he witnessed the tragedy of landmines. The exhibition's broken bodies speak of the tragic effect of military waste on society.

Fragments sculptures have already cleared landmines, cluster bombs and other unexploded weapons from communities and villages in Vietnam. In Angola, Fragments sculptures have funded equipment to map the location of mine field.

I highly recommend you go and see this exhibition; the art is breathtaking.

It's a chilling, yet strangely uplifting experience in the knowledge that we can all make a difference.
