2015 Taoyuan Land Art International Forum ------ 2015 桃園地景藝術國際論壇
(2015.9.21~9.29)

6 artists, including me, had residencies in 6 communities for more than one week in Taoyuan. Than we gathered with 2 more international scholar and curators, along with cultural officials, community leaders and other cultural workers, had a forum on the last day of the project.

The aim of this particular project was to review the past Taoyuan Land Art Festival of 2013 and 2014, and look for new thinking or new way of doing Taoyuan Land Art Festival in the future.

Now we have the documentary videos on Internet:

Encounter with Sound - An exhibition by students of my residency workshop in Oriental Institute of Technology, New Taipei City

Yesterday was the opening day for students' works in Oriental Institute of Technology, New Taipei City.

After 4 months' workshop, the nine students in two teams created 2 works related to sound and correspondence.

The one in front of the entrance of Youxiang Building entitled “Listen!” is made with pipes.

Another one on the 3^rd floor is made of recycled materials such as plastic bottles and discarded disks, and formed into a monster's head, entitled “Speak up bravely!”.

President Huang came to give spiritual rewards and an encouragement speech to the students. Each team introduced their own creative concepts to the audience. 

The students made a good exhibition. All the efforts and laborious inputs are worthwhile eventually.

A “Happy Ending” for everyone! 

Other small works that students made in the workshop: ceremic mushrooms, pipe sculpture.
