Abstract

This examination of recent art from China argues that the artist is increasingly returning the gaze, in which the seemingly problematic representation of the subservient body is a self-aware and nuanced presentation. Explored through the trials of a “British-Chinese” male artist’s tentative re-framing of his own body and its reproduction.
