Artist in Residence Tainan

Artist in Residence Tainan
Soulangh Culture Park / Tsung Yeh Art and Culture Centre, Tainan City, Taiwan
March-May 2016

As artist in residence I developed new installation project A Planter’s Art drawing on official, cinematic and family histories in Taiwan. Throughout residency I grew a garden and explored landscape and agriculture in the rural region of Tainan. During development of my film I also explored film and art histories in Taiwan in particular looking at performative and site specific film traditions from the tradition of rural with farmers during the Japanese colonial period to ongoing tradition of outdoor screenings at temples.
