When French artist Niko de la Faye decided to show off his sculpture to more people, he just got on his trike. Yang Yijun reports in Shanghai.

After his kinetic sculpture was displayed in Beijing for a year, French artist Niko de la Faye decided to transfer the piece to Shanghai. He rode it there. De la Faye was on the road for five weeks, riding his kinetic sculpture - M2B, which looks like a tricked-out tricycle - for 1,660 km.

"The traditional three-wheel bike has been part of the Chinese economy for a significant part of the 20th century," says de la Faye, who has been in Beijing for two years. "It has been used through the years in many different ways, from being a basic delivery vehicle to itinerant restaurant and shop-on-wheels."
