ISLAND REV­ER­ENCE – Art, Ecol­o­gy, and Com­mu­ni­ty
Island Rev­er­ence – Art, Ecol­o­gy, and Com­mu­ni­ty is a 2026 exhi­bi­tion and pub­lic art pro­gram explor­ing rela­tion­ships between art, nature, human­i­ty, ecol­o­gy, his­to­ry, and com­mu­ni­ty. Through exhi­bi­tions, per­for­mances, artist res­i­den­cies, work­shops, and spe­cial projects, the pro­gram approach­es the island as a liv­ing cul­tur­al and eco­log­i­cal land­scape shaped by envi­ron­men­tal change and pub­lic inter­ac­tion, and invit­ed vis­i­tors to reflect on place, belong­ing, envi­ron­men­tal change, and coex­is­tence. Par­tic­i­pat­ing artists work across paint­ing, sculp­ture, fiber art, instal­la­tion, pho­tog­ra­phy, music, sound, and per­for­mance, cre­at­ing dia­logues between nature, artis­tic prac­tice, and col­lec­tive experience.

Par­tic­i­pat­ing artists include: Chih-Hui Chuang, Eun Young Choi, Andrea Coro­nil, Paul Chen, Nina Edwards, Dena Paige Fis­ch­er, Julia Hsia, Bipasha Hay­at, Nikoli­na Kovalenko, Kyunglim Lee, Dan­ny Ama­zonas Liu, Yi-Chi Lin, Wildri­ana Pauli­no, I‑Chin Sung, Jere­mi­ah Teipen, Chia-Che Tsou, Scott Van­der­voort, Sarah Walko, Ricar­do Woo, and Chin-Chih Yang.
