“Taiwan Spectrum” is a sensory journey through geography, history, culture, and contemporary art. Through the evolution of Taiwanese visual art, the exhibition reflects a vivid microcosm of cultural fusion, creativity, and renewal. Spanning visuals, craft, and sound, the exhibition is composed of three interconnected spaces. Each space reflects a cultural phenomenon. In the interplay of sound, color, and light, viewers witness the island’s ever-evolving cultural vitality and creative force. Through their work, artists inherit history and embrace the present, seeking the colors of Taiwan within an ever-shifting environment. Their creations reflect the resilience and regenerative power of culture.
