Cai Guo-Qiang - Fallen Blossoms

Fallen Blossoms included Light Passage, a series of gunpowder drawings, and Fallen Blossoms: Explosion Project, a one-time explosion event on the East Terrace.  I actually like this photo much more than the explosion proper; it looks like a fiery chiffon chrysanthemum.
