week 8 peer review

This is a peer review after watching a video of Ruxue Li ‘s presentation about her project. It’s a great honor to hear about Ruxue Li ‘s project. My peer review is mainly divided into six parts. The first part is about purpose of the Ruxue Li ‘s project, the second part is about the vision of Ruxue Li ‘s project, and so on.

First of all, through your presentation, you explained that the purpose of the project is to find local elements in your hometown to spread the national culture of your hometown and cause people to reflect on the traditional culture. I think this is a very interesting and meaningful theme. I can imagine that on the day when your curatorial project is held, you can publicize the local elements of your hometown to people from different countries and regions in Edinburgh, and at the same time, you can encourage people to recall and learn from their own national culture, which is a very good idea.

The second part is the vision of your speech. You mentioned the way of combining family characteristics and clothing to form this project. This is an attractive point because clothing is a necessity for human life. And clothing is a good object to convey elements, taste and spirit.

Other than that, I think your project is very specific. What I mean is that you have worked out the whole process of the project, such as choosing to introduce a theme at the beginning of the project to liven things up. This is a great way to start a conversation and get people involved in your project quickly. Moreover, it is worth affirming that your project also includes feedback, which is the part I want to learn from you. feedback is indeed a particularly important part. We can get more experience from feedback and realize our shortcomings. Through your speech, I’m really looking forward to your project. And I believe that you have the ability to complete your project well, because you talked a lot about the process related to your activity in your speech. You’ve sorted out your venue, you’ve set the time, you’ve decided on artists and you’ve considered the audience.

The third part is about cultural elements. I heard you introduce some information about the Huangpu River. However, could you tell me more about the elements of your hometown that you will present this time? Like more historical context. I am looking forward to you introducing some more detailed elements of your hometown in your activities. You mentioned in the project plan of the seventh week that there are many districts in Shanghai, China besides the Bund and the Huangpu River like Qingpu District, and these places have splendid ancient culture. But what specific culture in the suburbs of Shanghai is your personal project related to? Is there anything special about this culture? Or do they just use clothing as a carrier to remind participants of their hometown’s traditional culture and make clothes? In addition, what kind of costume effect do you expect the participants to finish? Maybe all of these should be introduced.

The fourth part is about reference links. Ruxue Li’s activity reminds me of ClassBento, which is a place that often holds workshops and courses. They regularly hold activities related to clothes, such as elementary tailoring courses and embroidery courses. ClassBento is about a one day workshop on good resources, the hope that it may be useful to Ruxue Li activities, this is the linkhttps://classbento.co.uk/workshops-edinburgh?sortv=session-1

The fifth part is answering the question. As for the question, I did not mention the question I needed to respond in your blog, and I have not received any message from your Team. If you have any questions or doubts about this peer review, please contact me. Thank you very much.

Finally, thank you very much for your speech and blog. Through your speech, I can clearly know the content and process of your project. Your project is very creative and meaningful. You did a good job. I am looking forward to your project. That’s all my peer reviews of your project.
