关于《雪白的鸽子》
ABOUT《Snowy White Dove》
“雪白的鸽子”是胡小芳项目的第二阶段。在第一阶段“小芳”中,胡尹萍以“小芳”的名义用高于市场的价格收购母亲编织的大量稀奇古怪的帽子。胡妈妈的好运一经传开,镇里的阿姨们也希望参与,因而带动了整个项 目的发展。胡尹萍决定成立一个公司,来收购阿姨们的针织物。她让公司里的“小芳”伪造了一场法国海边比基尼大赛,邀请阿姨们为自己或家人编织属于自己的比基尼。生活在四川小镇的这群阿姨大多未去过远方,通过让她们想象真正的大海,使意识超越身体的距离。靠着这份想象,阿姨们在两年多的时间内织制了一百多套毛线比基尼。
“Snow-White Dove” is the second stage of the project Hu Xiaofang. In the first stage “Xiao Fang,” Hu Yinping purchased numerous rare and odd hats at above-market rates under the pseudonym “Xiaofang.” Once word spread of Hu’s mother’s good fortune, the mothers in the town were also keen to participate and the project grew. Hu Yinping decided to establish a company to officially purchase the knitted fabrics made by the mothers. Yinping then fabricated a French Bikini competition under the name “Xiaofang,” inviting the mothers to knit a bikini for themselves or their family members. Most of the mothers who live in the little town of Sichuan province never leave far from their homes. By inviting them to imagine the ocean, the mothers’ minds go beyond the distance their legs and bodies have reached. With this imagination, the mothers have knitted over a hundred woollen bikinis within two years.
