Too Scared For School
FW/2019
— “Second collection on this topic, I wanted to focus more on the social issue itself. It’s more like a louder version of the previous one. The reason I redid the same topic again was, last year, a string of shocking school bullying videos were exposed on the internet in China… Chinese netizens called for a stricter punishment to combat school bullying. Though some cities rolled out anti-bullying measures, most institutions still fail to protect kids from being bullied in school due to the current Child Protection Law, in which children under age 16 do not face harsh punishment unless they commit serious crimes. Also, schools and teachers try to dodge responsibilities. School bullying is hardly ever taken seriously. Thus, I chose to redo a collection on this topic in a more ‘provoking’ way.”
