MA LI

With her installation “May Queen”, the performance artist Ma Li transformed production waste from Berlin labels Máthé, Tata Christiane, and Starstyling into a visual dream world inspired by tradition, mythology, rituals, folklore, pop culture, and traditional Chinese handicrafts. Through her exuberant approach, she created floral elements and fantastical creatures that celebrated the "May Queen" of our time by upcycling the donated recyclables. The room-filling installation, designed to be viewed corona-safely through the large shop windows at Memhardstr. 8, was on display from April 30th, opening during the Gallery Weekend, until the end of May.
