Song Dong’s “Waste Not” installation, now on view at MoMA: “A collaboration first conceived of with the artist’s mother, the installation consists of the complete contents of her home, amassed over fifty years during which the Chinese concept of wu jin qi yong, or “waste not,” was a prerequisite for survival.” box vox: Waste Not: Song Dong at Moma
