'Jennifer Wen Ma (b. 1973) has emerged as one of the most innovative artists of her generation. She maintains an eclectic art practice, working in media as varied as installation, video, drawing, fashion design, performance, and public art. Within these frameworks, Ma continues to defy traditional classifications by combining unexpected elements, resulting in a prolific cross-disciplinary approach that is sensitive, poetic, and poignant. This publication is the first major monograph on the Chinese-American artist. It explores her visual vocabularies, conceptual themes, and various approaches to art making, revealing the intricacies of the artist's methodology.' - from the back cover
