The translated artist reproduction of A Better Life for the Workers (I), first published by the now defunct (guess why?) Hong Kong NGO Workers' Empowerment, cannot really be purchased here, but read this first, or learn more and buy from the Display Distribute distro.

The many-pocketed apron dress, 2008-2013

This is part of the shift from artist as singular producer to critical making as networked assemblage, as nodes in a longer process of composing.

Edited by 瞿畅 QU Chang from a chapter of her as-of-yet unfinished thesis “Feels a Lot Like Love: Love'in(g) Post-Reform China“.

If affect now also moves as a series of interconnected nodes in a inextricably capitalist infrastructure, does the ‘romance’ of a hand-to-hand remain only a complicit minor, or is it also possible to ‘ethically’ lay (larger societal) effects aside, become more aware of unintentionally superimposing growth or impact expectations on things where value might rather be found in subjective-collective experience, and functioning as an experiment? Is it still possible to discuss experience?

Apron for aesthetics and survival

Kana shodo (translating as 'woman's hand') is a Japanese script parallel to 女書 nvshu but native to Japan.

F fashion is not only a kind of appearance or, an inner, popular may not be suitable for you, but according to their own characteristics to dress up yourself, you belong to that kind, mature, lady, or simple and natural, or pure, or movement, a fact that can all be fashionable.
