In the Whose Dream Did You Adorn series (2022), Li enlarged locally made brooches and transformed them into installations crafted from metal and light bulbs. In the Gift series (2024), he unfolded corrugated cardboard boxes, used for packaging products made in Dongguan to be shipped worldwide, turning them into two-dimensional forms before molding them into brass. Both series emphasize the joy and value that Dongguan-manufactured goods have brought to people across the globe.
