Beijing Cultural Heritage Protection Center Event
A couple of weeks back I was asked to decorate a miniature courtyard house for a fund raising event for the Beijing Cultural Heritage Protection Center (CHP). My particular piece I decided to plastered in Er Guo Tou labels, I purchased over 30 bottles of the good stuff and took off the labels with the help of our new intern from USA Connor and made this little beauty (see attached pics). On the inside I plastered the walls with original Chinese wall paper from the 1970s I bought in a 2nd hand market and the ceiling with similar stuff. On the floor I drew an outline of a figure (chalked man) to look like the man inside had died from excessive drinking.
I was unable to attend the event as I was away in Malaysia but I heard great things about the night. All the pieces were sold at silent auction and some lucky person bought my piece which is nice! Attached are pics from the event. I particularly like the one with the holes in it! Who did that one?

The one with the holes in it was done by Wu Yiqiang (吴以强). Thanks again for participating with us Dominic!
hello,
Me and my friend are the lucky people bought your artwork. we bought it for an Irish friend who is a erguotou and Hutong lover as a leaving present. Your piece has just the right message we want to send him.
