A discussion of the latest series of works of artist and filmmaker Ellen Zweig. Zweig's series of videos explores the phatasmatic constructions of China by various Western figures. Zweig illustrates the ways in which China has been misinterpreted and represented to Western society, and the inherent appeal of a perception of the "exotic orient."
