His strategy is a risky one in a country where activism is increasingly suppressed, and where art and literature are closely scrutinised to ensure they conform to Communist Party ideals.

His projects “are all very close to everyday life, like music, hotpot, or drinking water, but once you go closer you find the messages are so striking,” said Li. Unlike artists such as Ai Weiwei, who adopt a stance that challenges China’s one-party system, environmental artists in China like Nut Brother try to work within the confines of the system. Performance art can raise public attention in a less confrontational way, he said.
