In early 2012 photographers Marco van Duyvendijk and Xiaoxiao Xu visited the Ya Mei Plastic Factory. This small factory, in Zhejiang province, China, produce love dolls. The book Love Doll Factory is a small tribute to the factory and its workers. Love Doll Factory is a delightful little book, made in loveable pink colours and with a highly enjoyable soft touch cover.

About the Artist
Marco Van Duyvendijk (b. 1974) is a Dutch documentary photographer.
If there’s one thing that distinguishes the photography of Marco van Duyvendijk, it is its flamboyant use of colour. Eastern Europe drab and grey? The empty steppes of Mongolia bare and colourless? Not seen through Van Duyvendijk’s viewfinder! The photographer takes us eastward with him on his travels to record an unexpected world: the war-torn landscape of Nagorno-Karabakh, fascinating towns and cities in China, but above all the souls of the countries he visits, expressed in his portraits of faces in which ancient worlds confront the modern era.
