*About 《Clones》：In our age of information, high-speed internet and industrial production, it appears to me that the most important characteristic is that of “Reproducing”. There seems to be greater value placed on “Quantity” over “Quality”. Perhaps it is because “Quantity” seems absolute while “Quality” seems relative. Different people define “Quality” in different ways; “Quantity” is more objective, a measurable standard that all can agree upon. The quantity—the mass—becomes what counts and determines the inherent value. We see this from the results of “China Super Girl”and “The New 7 Wonders of the World” that appealed to one hundred million people worldwide by getting them to vote on the internet. Cloning for human beings is even considered “reasonable”and an extreme outcome along the same lines. I use this as a symbol for my works to show the conditions of our times. What is more, the technique of ceramics and the way of installing blend together the ideas, means and materials, to produce both what I desire and what is unexpected.------ Xu Hongbo 27/7/2007
