In this workshop, visual artist Yu-Tzu Huang reinterpreted the symbols from Scenery near Yuan-Shan to construct a unique artistic realm, using pre-made templates akin to a model painting book. Collaborating with participants, she explored the transformation of intangible elements in nature, posing the thought-provoking question: “When a forest nurtured by nature becomes one shaped by social consciousness, does it still remain a forest?”
She divided the model painting book into 12 templates, with participants unknowingly gathering around the largest tree in the forest, affectionately nicknamed the “Sacred Tree.”
The workshop highlighted contemporary ink techniques, handcrafted writing tools, and unconventional materials such as mirror acrylic sheets and luminous ink, replacing traditional canvas and ink. Through hands-on creation, participants engaged in an improvisational process that merged artistic expression with body memory. By utilizing luminous ink’s spectral properties, they depicted the shifting nature of the forest between day and night, encouraging reflection on their personal connection with nature.
