Watermark, Handmade Paper
Near the Taipei Botanical Garden, abandoned greenhouses from the Japanese colonial era still stand. Pradise Greenhouse layers paper fibers, revealing plants and structures when illuminated, transporting viewers to a serene, deserted site bathed in afternoon light. The rough edges of the handmade paper resemble mist, adding mystery. The "multiple" nature of printmaking here transcends its original meaning, creating a greenhouse "space" filled with depth, inviting viewers into this time-worn paradise.
