A Winter Walk on the Market of Langfang

Overview

A short film made as part of Ruben Lundgren's 'Luxiaoben' project from 2007, which was made in reaction to Chinese people's fascination with the artist's height, shot in Beijing. "Since I moved to Beijing in 2007 people have made comments about my height (which is 200 cm exactly). As a reaction to this constant stream of amazement and good intended jokes about 'the weather up there' I embarked on a three year project. My aim was to deliberately confuse all this attention with 'being famous' and our hope was that this would turn into a self fulfilling prophecy. Which it did, somehow."
