GREEN CRAFT: The New York exhibition has been divided into three categories that illustrate how people interact with nature, their communities and minds

Staff writer, with CNA

More than 20 works by 42 Taiwanese artists that fuse environmental consciousness with artistic craftsmanship are on display in New York, the National Taiwan Craft Research and Development Institute said.

The exhibition, organized by the institute and titled “Homeland — Relationship of Taiwan Green Craft,” is being held at the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office (TECO) in New York until June 27, a statement by the institute said.

Among the artists displaying their works, Wu Kuan-liang (吳寬亮) transformed abandoned sea buoys and floats into painted lamps, key rings and piggy banks.

Hung Pi-shui (洪碧穗) created Taiwan-themed patchworks and fragrant sachets made from discarded fabrics and clothes, while Ho Shiu-ling (何秀玲) crafted passport cases made of paper mulberry bulk and other plant-based pieces, the institute said.

The exhibition has been divided into three categories that illustrate how people interact with nature, their communities and their minds, institute director Chang Jen-chi (張仁吉) said.

The first section features works made from waste or natural materials, reflecting how Taiwanese artists balance their craft with the natural environment, while the second section highlights the extension of artistic creativity into local communities, he said.

A family reunion-themed round table and special table for making ritual offerings displayed in the third section symbolizes people’s dialogues with their inner being, he said.

TECO New York Director-General James Lee (李光章) said in a speech at the opening of the show that the world “Homeland” in the title stands not only for Taiwan, but for the Earth, and that he hoped the exhibition would raise environmental awareness among visitors to the show.

Wu, Hung and Ho are to visit communities and campuses in the New York area in the next three weeks to present their diverse artworks, the institute said.
