"You bought your first PC in 1995, and then you officially moved out your parents' home. You registered a new identity on BBS, and then you became someone who lingers on the poetry forum all day long. In 2007 you booked a flight ticket to Europe, exchanged all the saving into foreign currency, got yourself a new English name, and officially left Taiwan. Since then, pieces of poems just keep falling out from your eyes. Dry, but they become moist if pasted onto a computer screen. Those things and people you have come across because of poetry writing cover you like graphic layers. Thus countless faces grow--on your own face."

This exhibition showcases more than 100 self-selected poems by poet / artist Ching Chwang Ho from 1995 to 2014, most of which have only been released online previously. Her themes include food, transportation, cultural entertainment, social movement, non-finance, global issues, personal ravings, love and other women's love stories. She wanders and collects in her own eternal foreign land. No reason is necessary for keeping on living and writing.
