Huang Po-Chih. Blue Elephant

Blue Elephant, the exhibition title, is an allusion to the working reality of the Taiwanese textile industry, interweaving personal experience with larger social and political contexts. 
Huang Po-Chih's presentation at mumok is centered around the multi-part work series Production Line – Made in China & Made in Taiwan (2014–21). Based on his essay Blue Skin: Mama’s Story (2011–13), in which he recounts his mother’s eventful working life, Huang’s series addresses the rise and fall of Taiwanese textile production and its incremental outsourcing to Shenzhen, China.
