Ming features a ubiquitous made-in-China white plate. The artist hired a Chinese art student to paint the word Ming onto the surface of the plate using blue porcelain paint. The project refers to colonization. The classic blue and white china that appears in many European cultures (Delft Blue etc.) would not exist had the Europeans remained at home.
