<GIFT>

The aim of this project is to identify a suitable communication medium for deconstructing and presenting the complexities of mother-daughter relationships in the Chinese context.

Gifts are often given to express love, but sometimes the intention behind them can be a form of control in the name of "love". In many families, love and harm can go hand in hand. The exploitation of women by patriarchal societies is also reflected in the use of pink bubbles of "love" and "beauty" to conceal the true predation that exists and to benefit those in power. Of course, each person may interpret the story differently in their own way.
