'Microscopic Narration' consists of two solo exhibitions by artists Zhang Xiaotao and Li Yifan, 'Mist' and 'Dossier'. Zhang Xiaotao frequently exhibits as a painter while Li Yifan works as a documentary director. Though working with different mediums, both of them have been devoted to textual research and narration of Chinese modern reality.
This catalogue presents Li Yifan's documentary video works in 'Dossier'. Li Yifan undertakes field surveys and draws visual samples from the underclass of Chinese society, unveiling the realistic and spiritual facets of an existence at the bottom of Chinese society. Artist biography provided.
