Overview
Migration and Arts is an exhibition featuring eight craft artists from Taiwan and master craft workshops with matching local artists to understand how migration also evolves art forms as the relationship with nature changes with the movement of people. This program aims to stimulate discussion on the fluidity of culture, while also showing the inherent social design values or social aesthetics including eco-craft, art therapy, and community building behind the craftworks.
Co-presented by National Taiwan Craft Research and Development Institute.
