There is no doubt that the early 90s was a significant period for the Pearl River Delta Metropolitan Region, as it became a key player in the national economic arena and the world factory for China.

​

As someone born in the early 90s, this period holds special meaning for me.

​

This artwork begins with an old family photo of me holding a doll, which was made during that time period by the manufacturing industry.

The installation is set in a room within a gallery space, with the video projected onto the window glass. The installation opens with a 90s disco dance scene where I dance inside the room, with the shadow of my silhouette showing on the window, where the video is projected later. My performance begins inside the room, but I eventually step out and continue to dance outside with the disco music.

​

The video explores the phenomenon of the development of manufacturing industries and consumerism. I also aim to challenge the boundaries between cinema and reality through my performance. The playful dance becomes a form of self-relief for me and for the people mentioned in the video, while also serving as a satire of consumer society.
