Investigating Transcultural Care: Village of Forgetting & Remembering
Residenties / uitwisseling
-
08-05-2023 t/m 15-07-2023
- In samenwerking met: Goethe Institute Rotterdam
- Locatie: Goethe Institute Rotterdam , Rotterdam
- Triggered by my social practice in a Dutch nursing home during Covid pandemic lockdown, I wanted to research on transcultural care and co-living space for immigrants in the Netherlands. During this residency, I developed a board game called Village of Forgetting & Remembering (2023) where players design their transcultural retirement village, with which we explore the sense of belonging through cultural aspects.

Spring Board Art Fair
Tentoonstelling / presentatie
-
08-06-2023 t/m 11-06-2025
- In samenwerking met: This Work fundation, Spring Board Art Fair
- Locatie: Werkspoorkathedraal, Utrecht
- I showed works from the series Memory Diaspora Reminiscence Objects.
This series is influenced by my experience giving art therapy to demented people during the pandemic. I used Dutch-reminiscent objects to retrieve their memories and help
them to remember who they were. As a Taiwanese immigrant, I wonder what kinds of objects should be used for people with transcultural backgrounds. The works presented at the fair express my experiences exploring memories among different cultures.
Memory Diaspora-Plantae
Opdracht
-
01-07-2023 t/m 03-07-2022
- In samenwerking met: Nest, Down the Rabbit Hole music festival
- Locatie: Groene Heuvels – Beuningen, Groene Heuvels – Beuningen
- I received the invitation from Nest to make a painting (247x 200 cm) as part of a massive painting mural project for the music festival Down the Rabbit Hole together with other great artists. With a beautiful theme, “Acradia,” it inspired me to connect my Plantae project. With this painting, I wish to bring the viewers to enter (part of) this world: where people’s memories about plants intertwine, connect and evolve freely, where there is no border, nor the hierarchy of colors and culture.

V2 Winter Sessions
Residenties / uitwisseling
-
24-01-2022 t/m 28-01-2022
- In samenwerking met: V2_
- Locatie: V2_ , Rotterdam
- Different kinds of optical viewers appear in my work as metaphors for how I look at my past and observe my life in the Netherlands. During the winter session at V2, I explored the visual effects created by the stereoscope: merging two images and forming the third possibility by engaging the viewers' personal visual processing experience in the brain. For me, the constantly merging, overlapping, and changing status serves as a metaphor for how I experience cultural hybridity.
