Catalogues published on the occassion of the solo exhibition 'Diary of Sulfur Mining - Pataauw' by Yu Ji at the Mind Set Art Center in Taipei in January 2016.
'It was Yu’s first encounter with Liouhuang Valley at Pataauw, Taiwan in 2012 that initialised the exhibition “Diary of Sulfur Mining - Pataauw”. The unique landscape of Liouhuang Valley inspired the artist to launch a series of studies on Pataauw’s geographical features, culture and history, starting with literature research and followed by field study. The practice results in art pieces of various forms and thus completes a journey of learning and creation experience in a very personal way. To Yu, this is a new mode of artistic practice and therefore this exhibition is not simply showing recent works but also a presentation of the project that she carried out over the past few years, in which we can find her consistency of valuing process, experiment on media, fascination for stones, as well as her first video work Pataauw Stone.' - extracted from the gallery's website.
Includes excerpts from the artist talk in which the artist was joined by Professor Shao-Chien Tseng (Chairperson of the Graduate Institute of Art Studies, National Center University), and an interview with the artist. With artist biography.
