Within the historic architecture of Taiwan Confucian Examination Hall—a heritage site bearing the imprint of the late nineteenth-century imperial examination system—time does not simply unfold, but recurs in overlapping and permeable currents. The curatorial theme, Wandering in the Wind, proposes a contemporary negotiation of time and space: it returns to the origins of the classical spirit, alongside its reconfiguration through a contemporary deconstructive gaze.
Amid the timber framework of the Taiwan Confucian Examination Hall, Lee Kuang-Yu’s spatially responsive sculptures in dialogue with the magical heterogeneity of Teng Pu-Chun’s ink paintings. Once a site of scholarly ambition and the pursuit of official rank, the hall is reshaped as a contemporary garden for spiritual dwelling.
Through Lee’s bronze presence and Teng’s ink structures, Wandering in the Wind transforms classical spirit into a sensory experience charged with contemporary vitality. More than an homage to the aesthetics of the traditional eastern garden, the exhibition proposes a contemplative practice through which individuals, amid the fragmented and fluid conditions of contemporary life, might recover a sense of inner stillness.
