[Overview]

The Austronesian-speaking Indigenous Peoples of Taiwan have passed down their culture through oral traditions, songs, clothing, and crafted objects.

Today, their creative expressions—rooted in listening to the voices of the land and the sea, honoring all living things, and embracing beauty—are gaining attention as “Indigenous Art.”

This exhibition presents works by artists who, while deeply respecting tradition, continue to pursue new forms of creative expression.
