The Power of Flowering
The Power of Flowering
As a mark of the times, the culture of military villages is a collection of the stories about the migrators settling down in the foreign land.
The work is remade from the four dismantled iron windows of the Guishan Military Dependents' Village Museum. On two of the windows are peony and hibiscus, the exotic species from the other side of the strait and the native species commonly seen in the field of Taiwan, representing the interweaving culture and life experience of the females in the military villages.
On the other two windows are the bicycle of Uncle Tang, who often sold pastries in the streets of the community, and the tricycle of Mother Chou, who door-to-door collected the lunchboxes of the schoolchildren of Xinlu Elementary School and delivered them to school. In this way, the shared memories of the residents of the military villages are reproduced.
Material:Iron
Dimensions:Each window W209 cm X H190cm, 4 windows in total
