Our Time
Our Time
Curators known for combining arts with the ecological engineering methods both from Taiwan and abroad as well as teams of aboriginal artists are invited to participate in this project. By vertically aggregating and arranging collected logs of different sizes and then horizontally connecting the giant trees surrounding what used to be a military dependents’ housing area, this project creates a space in the underneath and neighborhood of trees with historical significance based on the concepts of these curators and aboriginal artists as well as through their practice of joint artistic creation. This is a space where visitors can either stay or lie down to look upon the sky through the foliage to appreciate the beauty of nature and life in our time.
