CHU, Fang-Yi
‘image is an unknown, this makes me keep wondering what kind of message can image present. Looking at the sculpture, it is hard to tell whether it is a flower or not. Chu wants to use human instinct sensory experience to interpret of unknown imagination, instead of past experiences like history, traditional culture. Images lead humans to deconstruct and read objects from the original mind and then get a purer physical experience.

Li Wen Tsien
Sea rock, under the erosion of wave and time, the purest care toward humans is retained.
The works first give people a moment of rigor and a sense of coldness, which is the first impression that Li 's works bring to people. He uses the painting series ‘sea rock’ to break everyone’s impression of landscape painting. He added a profound humanistic meaning to discuss the interdependence between man and nature. All the elements are simplified and deconstructed in space, presenting the shape of letters, cuneiform writing, carved grooves, hieroglyphics, Egyptian allegorical writing... these symbols have become signs in the world and characters in the universe. Going back to the original form of words, it is like responding to the most primitive discussion of "human".

LIEN Chien Hsing
When an object or scenes lost its own feature, it gives a chance of infinite reverie and fantasy. The aesthetic with the artist's subjectivity is positioned as the magical ruins of LIEN Chien Hsing.

CHEN Kuei-Yen
Each lonely individual, in the process of repeated stacking, connects each other again.
Art teaches me to understand the world. CHEN’s works using a thick coat to break the flatness in painting, use the texture of the paint to depict the state and relationship between emotions and people.
His early paintings are dominated by figures who have no distinct facial features but are stacked repeatedly with paint. He believes that the contour lines are fixed, but people's emotions are not absolute. Therefore, he uses stacked paint to reflect people's emotions and uncertainty. After that, he added other objects in the paintings. Looking at it from an anthropomorphic perspective, the transformation of mood brought daily things into poetic situational. We are all alone, wandering in the crowd, facing the vastness together, and facing to ourselves alone.

CHEN Kuei-Yen（1981-）graduated from the Department of Visual Arts of Simon Fei University in Canada and the graduated Institute of Plastic Art, National Tainan University of the Arts.

HUANG ZAN-LUN
Kidnapped by technology, have you ever seriously thought about the possibility that we will eventually be dominated by technology decades later? Perhaps the plot in a science fiction movie is going to happen quietly at a concern. When technology has become an indispensable life factor for human beings, the impact of technology has far beyond the control of human. Through creation, HUANG explores the relationship between technology and humanity through a hybrid of biology and machinery, trying to verify the multiple issues of self-cognition and the external environment. From this human body sketch series, audiences can understand the artist's point of view of human value.

Jaeyeol Han
A portrait can present the expression of a person; combined with the use of color, you can reconstruct the personality and style of the person at the same time. The portrait of Han not only records the appearance but also carries their soul. Han used obvious brushstrokes to portray the outlines of the figures, and then used chromaticity and bright colors to point out their spirits. This contained virtual and real, is how impressionists chose to present realism by changed the softness, light, and shade of the object. His intention is to draw things that are invisible, and his portrait works try to express the characters' dramatic monologues in a flat picture by passersby.

Samuel Bossini
In "Natural World" that captures games, he explores the construction of the ordinary soul of the body. In draw in the air a hand, the lines are read under the mantle, where in the ceremonies and their silences, a part of the forest is discovered. There destiny is lightly challenged, perhaps because the spirit is transformed or because it is weary.
