I sort of love when objects are scaled contrary to norm. On Monday, Nigerian contemporary artist Yinka Shonibare revealed his giant model of Admiral Horatio Nelson's flagship, the HMS Victory. The 15' x 9' ship in a bottle temporarily occupies the Fourth Plinth, a public space in London's Trafalgar Square used to display commissioned artworks.
