'A steel beam sweeps the gallery, just above our heads. Standing under it, the air ruffles your hair as it turns. Its hard not to duck and cringe. If you are over 6ft 8in, Martin Creed's Mothers could kill you. Big hair? It'll scalp you.

Standing on the beam, and almost grazing the ceiling as it passes, is a large white neon sign saying MOTHERS. Originally one of a pair, (the other saying FATHERS), the sculpture was initially planned for a public site in Germany. It's a behemoth. What does it mean?

Perhaps the answer is found in Creed's new, self-released single, which the artist performed live with his band at a party following the opening of the show.'
