Shirley Tse – 'Playcourt' knit badminton shuttlecock
Regular price HK$600.00
Hong Kong-born, Los Angeles-based artist Shirley Tse works across multiple media to deconstruct synthetic objects that inherently carry paradoxical meanings within them and construct models in which these differences might come together. In collaboration with Tse, the M+ Shop has developed a series of products in response to her solo exhibition Shirley Tse: Stakes and Holders* and to evoke her sculptural ideas. Working with multiple Hong Kong craftsmen, these respective 'stakeholders' in the collection’s development highlight and underpin the exhibition’s title.

- Distinctive interlacing of cotton and nylon rope, which is often used for drying lap cheong (Chinese sausage)
