Once again I find myself alerted to unimitable talent by the unimitably talented Susie Bubble and Dazed Digital. This time ’round I’m simultaneously hankering after and pondering intensely the work of 23-year old Central St. Martins graduate Xiao Xiao Dong. Her plays on proportion are unbridled, the product of “printed shapes and rectangular frames”, these are what I can truly describe – with that so overused word – as innovative. Never before have infantile prints, soft, muted greens and overt exaggeration been so appealing.
