Description

Tsai Ming-chun has long been dedicated to exploring themes of environment, nature, and ecology, with a particular focus on the relationship between art, the public, and society, as well as the interplay between Taiwan's political and social development and the arts. In recent years, Tsai's research, collaborations, and practices have increasingly adopted site- or context-specific approaches. Through sharing, discussion, and even challenging conventions, Tsai employs curatorial practices grounded in commissioned works as both a method and an attitude.
