In HUAXIANGYUAN Mung Bean Pie (2019) I made a food package with dense multilingual labels like those imported goods that can be found in supermarkets, the language depends on the language category on Baidu Translate, one of China's most popular website. A Chinese label behind the product implies that these goods produced in China will eventually be imported back to China. These multi-language characters symbolize the node cities under global trade, metaphorizing its ambition of occupation and expansion, and they are also the path record of global and regional struggles under consumerism.
