Made in China

A collboration between Julie Mathias and Wolfgang Kaeppner of WokMedia and the Contrasts Gallery of Shanghai.

Seemingly innocent children toys act as a kind of space invaders emerging from a world hidden inside our childhood memories. Specifically invading antique Chinese furniture, starting to threaten their traditional past. Revealing a surreal and terrifying landscape of derailed trains, drowning babies, crashing planes and wild dinosaurs. Questioning our self constructed environments, shaking on our make-believe worlds and throwing them off centre. Out of the confusion a far more powerful world develops, beyond the clarity of logic. Inside the chaos there is often another unexplored world, offering new possibilities in sense making.
