MATILDA YUEYANG PENG, SPECIAL MATERIALS
“People made of special materials” is a phrase commonly used to promote the realization of self-fulfillment and self-sacrifice in the communist context. Revolving around the effect of the Chinese Cultural Revolution on my family history, this project is a visualization of a “monologue” constantly going on between all times, people, and materials, especially the single-sided conversation that is speaking to and influencing generations of continual products of historical events. The past, present, and future are mingled here, each producing a monologue of their own.” - Lucie Fountation
