| | Wolf's project "The Real Toy Story" was originally conceived and
produced as a large-scale installation. It features photographic
portraits of Chinese toy factory workers surrounded on the walls with
20,000 used plastic toys, all made in China. Wolf collected each and
every toy, scouring flea markets in the United States, in an effort to
exhibit a cross section of American pop culture. The work portrays the
human presence behind mass-produced goods and provides viewers with a
visceral, immersive experience that evokes the sensation of density
endemic to urban areas of the region. The installation is available
either in its entirety, as smaller panels, or as individual
photographs.
