If light represents hope, then although a single speck of light appears insignificant, a sea of specks is Taipei!
The capital city of Taipei is one of fantasy, a place where dreams come true. Countless men and women have left their homes to come here, hoping for a chance to succeed in their line of work. They have come here in hopes of establishing their names and fulfilling their wildest dreams. These people work around the clock to pursue their endless goals.
The work consists of bamboo-woven objects that resemble the sun, the moon and the stars. The purpose here is for viewers to ask themselves, “When was the last time I relaxed on the grass and admired the shifting clouds in the sky? When was the last time I stopped to examine the moon in the sky?”
Let’s not forget the passion in our hearts that drove us to where we are today. Slow down and look up in the sky. Enjoy the sunlight and let it shine on your dark spots. Let the wind and clouds cleanse your busy soul. Take a loved one by the hand, and go on a midnight stroll in the moonlight.
