Leftover women
2015, 21x30
Collages
One day I was leafing through some books in a kilo store in Fuzhou street, in Shanghai, when I discovered something that caught my attention: some erotic books with naked women on different scenarios. It seemed to be artistic but it just showed a fake and materialistic distortion from the female image. It came to me the so used term leftover women in China, too old or too successful for procreation. Both of these ideas mingled together to create these collages of deformed, unreal and non-human women. Because, what is it more female, the images created in magazines or media with highly aesthetic expectations or these monster women that are abundant of the most desired?
