Bejing-based artist Deng Ying decorates the blank expanse of this paper folding fan with a colorful painted scene she calls "At the Park 4." In China, folding fans have a long history of being used in home décor, particularly by wealthy aristocrats as symbols of taste and status. Deng Ying's whimsical, upbeat paintings contrast the fan's traditional form and playfully juxtapose past and present. We've set the fan on a custom steel mount for display as a tabletop sculpture.
