Yan Shi：Universe Apparel Store
Yan Shi：Universe Apparel Store
It is a limited-time boutique that exclusively sells white shirts. The reason behind this concept is quite simple: Yan Shi has several friends living in Shijiazhuang, and he often visits to reunite with them. Every time he comes to Shijiazhuang, he can sense the gradual changes happening in the city. This personal project serves as an exhibition record and emotional witness to the city's transformations. Here is the opening speech written by Yan Shi for "Cosmic Clothing Store":
"The Universe Television Factory was once a shining star. Although time has forgotten it, we should remember its dedication to technological innovation and pursuit of quality. In this vast world, this star is buried in silence.
Today, I inherit the name ' Universe' and establish the Universe Apparel Store . It will bloom like a blossoming flower, radiating creative and vibrant brilliance in a mysterious atmosphere. This flower resonates with the vanished star, coexisting within the boundless cosmos.
We will focus on white shirts as our flagship product, committed to providing the highest quality and service, upholding the spirit of universe and pursuing excellence.
Please join me in wishing the success of the Universe Apparel Store, as we continuously seek truth and beauty, and write our own glorious chapter in this mysterious and colorful world. In the infinite universe, the Universe Television Factory and the Universe Apparel Store are closely linked, perfect in harmony.
The store will be open to the public from May 20th to July 23rd, 2023, and we will periodically introduce special promotional activities! You are welcome to come and choose our white shirt products!"
Yan Shi was born in Shenyang in 1975 and studied at the Photography Department of Luxun Academy of Fine Arts and the Multimedia and Composite Materials Department of Xiamen University Art College. He currently works and lives in Beijing.
