"Botanical Borrowing. Chen Lifan Solo Exhibition" will be on display at the Thatched House Exhibition Hall of Baodi Garden, Wufeng Temple, Taichung from December 24, 2024 to March 31, 2025. This exhibition uses sustainable velvet flower crafts as a medium to present artistic creations of plants and flowers, combining traditional crafts with contemporary art vocabulary to show a deep reflection on nature and culture.
The theme of the exhibition, "Botanical Borrowing", is inspired by the creation of materials borrowed from nature, feeling the tranquility and warmth brought by the vitality of plants. The works on display include the 2023 A+ Cultural Assets Creative Excellence Special Award "Flowers", the 2024 Taiwan Green Crafts Certification "She", and the Resident Creation Series "One Scene One Mirror". The works start with delicate velvet craftsmanship and use local sustainable materials to reshape the image of flowers and plants, explore memory, emotion and life cycle, and present the cultural value of the intersection of natural beauty and sustainable craftsmanship.
Chen Lifan takes the craft of intangible cultural assets as the core of his creation. This time, he gives velvet craft a new contemporary vocabulary, showing its delicate and soft texture and infinite creative possibilities. This exhibition also focuses on the concept of sustainable craftsmanship, emphasizing the importance of environmental protection and cultural inheritance through his works. A simple velvet craft experience course is specially arranged at the exhibition site, allowing the audience to experience the charm of this craft firsthand and understand its history and production process.
As the exhibition venue, Kirifeng Palace Baodi Garden provides a culturally rich background for this exhibition, further highlighting the dialogue between tradition and the contemporary. Ginyou Creative Culture sincerely invites art lovers and the public to experience this artistic feast full of poetic and craftsmanship, and explore the integration of nature and humanity together.
