「你的胸部真精緻,真中國。」
You’re so SMALL, so CHINESE



Dimension Variable.
Silicone

2015


藝術家透過運用她的乳房大小來創作矽膠製品,探索了人體的商品化和政治化。這些作品是在中國東莞的矽膠工廠製作的。選擇矽膠作為材料,一種人造物質,象徵著假冒的概念。作品的名稱「你的胸部真精緻,真中國。」源於藝術家朋友的評價。通過這個標題,藝術家質疑:當國籍成為形容詞,國家身分其實是一種空想。


The artist explores the commodification and politicization of the human body by utilizing the size of her breasts to create silicone objects. These pieces were crafted in a silicone industry located in Dongguan, China. The choice of silicone as a material, an artificial substance, serves as a symbolic reference to the concept of counterfeiting.

The artwork's title, 'You're so SMALL, so Chinese,' originates from the artist's friend when they were together. By employing this title, the artist questions that if a nationality became an adjective, the recognised identity can be as deceptive as imagination.
