For such a long time, people have been asking me how I developed Chairman Deng Xiaoping’s portrait on chopsticks of AsMuchAsYouLike installation. Well, here you go. I have done so many researches on image of Chairman Deng Xiaoping; however, I couldn’t find a nice simplified version one. It is interesting to know that Chairman Deng doesn’t like himself to be Chairman Mao who is worshiped by many people and treated as God. Therefore, you rarely find any article published his symblic image. (or you call iconic image) The only image I found is his photo taken when he visited Shenzhen which is the first city became economic special zone due to his Open and Reform policy. Only this image has significant symbolic meaning to Chinese people. So I have done some photoshop works and simplified a bit.
