"Mirror Flower Wormhole Feast" Hung Yi (洪易) Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition

Mirror flowers splash like colorful imagination; wormholes traverse the boundaries between ancient and modern times. Hung Yi uses artistic creation to build a cross-temporal "garden theater" in the outdoor space of the National Museum of History, presenting a fantastical visual feast of aliens and animals. Their rounded forms and colorful energy play like a game穿梭 between the historic architecture and the bustling modern cityscape.

Extraterrestrial beings might be shaped by human fantasies and fears of the unknown universe, but Hung Yi uses a humorous heart-hand gesture symbol to accept and, with a technological coolness, mirror the surrounding greenery and sky, while also reflecting the self-image of viewers facing him up close—distant yet intimate, cold yet comical, like a joyful alien companion or a solitary mirrored mood of drinking alone amid the vast cosmos.

In the long history of connection between animals and humans, amid the natural vitality of co-evolution, animals have always maintained a close spiritual bond with humans. With simplified animal forms, Hung Yi incorporates totems from folklore, mythology, and modern culture, bringing colorful, diverse species full of symbols and meanings of blessings. The animals are scattered among the tree shadows, pavilions, boulders, and ponds, like a wonderful celebration of misplaced time and space in the garden.

"Mirror Flower Wormhole Feast" is not just a visual carnival but a modern harmonious allegory of "diverse coexistence" and "inclusive understanding." Art transcends species and language, traveling through time, space, and imagination, bringing this joyful and visually riotous "interstellar animal party," inviting viewers to immerse themselves and realize that whether originating from cosmic fantasy or intersecting with natural life, all ultimately point to a core proposition—how to find connection amid difference and reconstruct understanding through play.

This exhibition gathers many of Hung Yi's brightly colored, playful sculptures, breaking traditional indoor display forms and setting them up across multiple outdoor spaces, including the National Museum of History, the Taipei Branch of the National Taiwan Craft Research and Development Institute, and the National Taiwan Arts Education Center, forming a "Sculpture Corridor" spanning the Nanhai Academy Park. Visitors can freely wander through the outdoor areas and closely experience the charm of sculptures extending into space.
