Media images from Chinese nude photography and building materials come together in A whole new world a go-go where beauty, tradition, eroticism and gender are put into play. Central to the display are eight sculpted vases holding folded paper flowers, with a ninth vase standing empty. They are arranged upon varying stacks of cinder blocks and 2 wooden pallets further bringing together the contrasting cultural spaces, while questioning our notion of renewal and progress.
