Turner prize-winning artist Martin Creed is currently showing a selection of new pieces at Hauser & Wirth, Savile Row, London. The exhibition is entitled Mothers, with its centrepiece a monumental sculpture consisting of the titular word spinning around the gallery space at dizzying speed. Other works on show include paintings and photographic studies, and Creed has also released a single and video to accompany the exhibition.
