Ai Weiwei presents 'Water Lilies #1' at Ordrupgaard, his largest Lego installation yet. Inspired by Monet's masterpiece, it features a black portal symbolizing his childhood in a Chinese work camp. Through this, Ai Weiwei addresses censorship and personal struggles, intertwining beauty, grief, and activism in a powerful narrative.
