The Piece, called Under Scan, is made up of 1,000 portraits of members of the public from across the East Midlands. It has been created by Mexican-Canadian artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, aged 37. The piece, commissioned by the East Midlands Development Agency, was displayed in Humberstone Gate Wes, Leicester from 12-22 January. Mr Lozano-Hemmer says it is his most ambitious piece of work. He said: "It is the culmination of almost a year's work, including intensive research and technical and artistic development.
