hand-sewn collages|
photos: Yuan, Yong Xing

The dresses called
<<archeological cloth
sculptures>> have been
created with old cloths
I found from the ward-
robe of my family
in shanghai. pyjamas,
dresses, bed cloths,
caps...every single
piece keeps a mosaic of
family history and
reveals the 70ies, 80ies and 90ies in China – a
time of huge social
transformation and
style
mixes.

* exhibited at <<CHINA GO – contemporary chinese fashion design>> in Boutique Gegenalltag, Museumsquartier Vienna
