Made in China (Wereldmusuem, Rotterdam) - Li Xiaofeng.
Li Xiaofeng uses shards of found porcelain to assemble striking garments, from haute couture to traditional Chinese dress to military uniforms. His meticulously constructed pieces combine sculpture and sewing. Xiaofeng’s work The Weight of the Millennium (2015), a blue-and-white dress fashioned from fragments of plates, bowls, and other dinnerware, was a crowd favorite at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s 2015 blockbuster exhibition “China: Through the Looking Glass.” Made of porcelain from the Ming and Qing dynasties, this piece reflects Li’s interest in the long, complex history of this export commodity, whose forms and patterns are traces of globalization. For Li, porcelain remains a potent cultural symbol ripe for exploring themes concerning desire, value, and the circulation of materials.
