Artist Ai Wei Wei "UPDATE" Still missing, but present in Flash Graffiti



Outspoken human rights activist, artist Ai Wei Wei is still report missing since his April 3 arrest by the Chinese government, apparently under "economic" charges.

Though even in his absence, Ai Wei Wei's influence perpetuates. Flash Graffiti artist Cpak Ming projected an image of Wei Wei on the barracks of The People's Liberation Front.

"The People's Liberation Army in Hong Kong has taken the unprecedented step of saying it "reserves its legal right" to act over what it says was a breach of Hong Kong law when activists campaigning in support of Ai Weiwei projected the detained artist's image onto a wall at the PLA barracks in Admiralty."
