Lau Lu La Toy and Hoshi
2005 Fabric Sculpture
23” x 9” x 7”

*SOLD*

Lilly Yeh, my professor of art history at the Philadelphia College of Art would often say "You can tell the true nature of a culture by how they treat their women" and she would speak of the decadence of the Han Dynasty, when consumption was erotic. Like Lilly Yeh, Lau Lu La Toy is a close observer of mores who hopes to profit from exotic American styles. To that end, her granddaughter is here packaged as a consumer confection. In the market, she asks of passersby, "Isn't she a perfect little doll for rich soon-to-be-husband? She bring much luck to family."
