Taiwan Street Stories is a multimedia portrait of street workers, landscapes, and daily moments on the streets of Taiwan, presented through the lens of dream logic and immersive interaction.
The installation comprises a multi-screen, non-linear, automated, and randomized poetic video documentary, as well as street photography, slides, 3D-scanned printed miniatures, and interactive 3D video.
The installation incorporates Chinese and Japanese non-linear poetry modalities, such as Xuanjitu, and Renga (see published articles), emphasizing interrelation, recontextualization, and interactivity. Additionally, this installation incorporates elements of traditional Taiwanese Paper Sculpture, including Zhizha, Chinese porcelain sculpture, Japanese miniature sculpture, including Netsuke, and Neo-Dadaist collage.
The documentary installation employs this poetic framework to convey a fluid, individualized, and participatory viewer experience, illustrating a highly subjective, ambiguous, and meditative documentation of Taiwanese street workers, their surrounding social landscape, and the multidimensional forces within.
