Medium:
Ink and acrylic on metal barium sulfide photo paper, aluminum plate, 2023,
80CMx60CMx3CM
Notes:
Taotie as a fictional animal in ancient China, its image is derived from the South China tiger. It also symbolizes the ruling class’s intimidation of people’s thoughts. I explore how authoritative knowledge about animals is appropriated by emperor.
