Taoyuan is home to rice paddies in the northern part of Taiwan. Based on rice bags in farmers' house and cloth bags of the Hakka, the artwork carries the metaphor of great harvest after school work for commuters in Fugang. Two stone sculptures represent the outlooks of stuffed rice bag and Hakka cloth bag. The tension manifested at the twisted neck of the bag brings about a dynamic visual highlight, whereas the body of the bag presents as tender and soft, so that visitors may enjoy the funs of sitting, lying, climbing and touching the artwork.

Material:Marble and 2-mm engraved texts on the stainless steel with a hairline finish

Dimensions:Approximately 1.5 X 0.95 X 0.8m; about 6 pieces
