Cats have been regarded as psychic animals since ancient times, no matter in China or Ancient Greece. What’s even more interesting is that if a selfie of mine would be seen by 100 people, a cat photo would be seen by 1000 people. I believe that everyone can share this happiness.” – Ai Weiwei Important informationThis item is being sold as part of Artists for Kettle’s Yard, an exhibition raising money for the Jim & Helen Ede Fund.
