Central News Agency reporter Huang Yu-ching reporting from Pingtung on the 15th. The Seaside Gallery in Checheng, Pingtung, will launch a new exhibition, 'Daily Shift,' on the 18th. Through the sculpture works of Taiwanese artist Tsai Chieh-Hsin and Japanese sculptor Misato Sano, the exhibition showcases daily life from different cultural perspectives. Sano has specially created three works for Pingtung, and the original manuscripts will be displayed concurrently.
The Information and International Affairs Department of the Pingtung County Government issued a press release today stating that 'Daily Shift' exhibits a total of 32 artworks. Through the creative perspectives of the two artists, it leads the audience to see subtle yet profound emotional changes within seemingly ordinary daily lives. Among them, Sano uses dogs as a symbol of self-projection, presenting inner emotions and psychological states through sculptures in various postures.
The Department explained that for Sano, dogs are not only symbols of companionship and loyalty but also a way to observe her own emotions and life state. Her works act like frozen psychological scenes, presenting multiple emotions such as attachment, alertness, and vulnerability in tranquility. She has specially created three brand-new works for Pingtung, and her creative manuscripts will be displayed simultaneously, allowing viewers a glimpse into the creative process from conception to completion. Furthermore, a large outdoor inflatable Pomeranian installation, drawn by Sano and produced by the curatorial team, will also make its debut.
The Department pointed out that Tsai Chieh-Hsin has long used papier-mâché as her primary creative medium. Through a warm and soft form vocabulary, she presents the emotional connection between humans, animals, and natural life. She integrates environmental concepts into her creations, practicing art with low energy consumption and reduced waste. Through humorous sculptures, she allows viewers to rediscover the warmth of daily companionship and attachment amidst the busy rhythm of life.
The Department mentioned that the Seaside Gallery is one of the important venues for the Luo Shan Feng Arts Festival, continuing to inject more cultural energy into the Hengchun Peninsula through curation and art exhibitions. In recent years, every exhibition has been widely praised, gradually transforming this museum located at the southernmost tip of Taiwan from a place 'too far away' into a cultural landmark that people feel they 'must visit no matter how far.'
The 'Daily Shift' exhibition runs from April 18 to July 19. For more exhibition information, please visit i-Pingtung, the Information and International Affairs Department of the Pingtung County Government, the Luo Shan Feng Facebook page, and the official website of the 'Daily Shift' exhibition.
