“Who builds the city?“
We are not only civilians of an urban landscape, but also can be seen as modelers of our cities. Within the exhibition, we will invite participants to come together to brainstorm and build a miniature city model according to their imaginations towards future possibilities of the city. Through the game-oriented format of role-playing, we set out to explore the challenges that may be faced within the city, and use different "tasks" within the game as a guide for discussion to simulate the evolution of the first-level city and rethink about our relationship with the city. In the project, artists from Taiwan, the Netherlands, Germany and South Korea will be invited to hold workshops to experiment with different possibilities in the city through multiple urban experiences and intervention methods.
Curators: Yu-Chin Ku, I-Chieh Liu, Huai-Chih Liang
Artists: Group B,Janneke Derksen, Sarah Bovelett, Minsun Kim, millonaliu(Klodiana Millona & Yuan-Chun Liu)
