Against the backdrop of contemporary high-end home furnishing consumption, LEEDARSON joined hands with renowned sculptor Jiang sheng to launch their co-branded new product, the YINIAN Table Lamp, at Design Shanghai. Taking the new product launch as an opportunity, this forum unfolds an ideological dialogue that weaves together Oriental aesthetics, contemporary art and brand values.
Committed to "crafting a lamp that warms the heart", LEEDARSON has been ceaselessly exploring the boundaries between lighting and art. From illuminating physical spaces to brightening the spiritual world, the YINIAN Table Lamp draws its inspiration from the concept of "the manifestation of consciousness". It delves into the boundary between spiritual illumination and physical form by drawing on the philosophy of "enlightenment in a single thought", the conduction of neural impulses in cognitive science, and the character structure of "yi nian"—a combination of the Chinese characters jin (present) and xin (heart). The event will explore the modern expression of philosophical symbols in contemporary design and their translation into craft, the way to strike a balance between sculptural art and home lighting, as well as how light and shadow act as a medium connecting inner consciousness and external space.

Revisiting the design history of New China from a female perspective reveals that women were not only subjects of representation, but also active participants in the production, display, and construction of “beauty.” This “beauty” was embodied not only in modern visual expression in propaganda imagery, but also in light-industry production, women’s lifestyle products, consumer culture, and the shaping of everyday life. By tracing changes in female images, aesthetics, and social roles across different periods, this talk highlights the distinctive role women played in the development of design in New China.
Key Points:
1. Women were important symbols in the visual narrative of modernity in New China.
2. Women participated in the making and display of “beauty.”
3. Women gradually became aesthetic subjects and builders of everyday life.
