Dragon Palace 

size|6.8*6.5*4.5 m
material|bamboo, wood, rope and fabric, gravel, LED lighting

This pavilion is set up in the sightseeing fishing port of Chiayi which is a prosperous fishery city in Taiwan as a rest space and entrance image for welcoming travelers.

In the marine environment of Taiwan, we have abundant marine life, including fishes, shrimps, crabs, snail shells, etc. The artist Cheng Tsung FENG is fascinated by the beauty of their shapes and organic appearance. He blended the various marine biological characteristics to construct and weave a pavilion with bamboo, wood and rope. 

The pavilion has a special appearance and a sense of ritual. When the night rolls around, it will be lit up and down with the breathing rate, just like a monster that wakes up in the night, and it will lead the islanders to go to the mysterious Dragon Palace of the ocean fairy tale.

台灣海域有豐富的魚、蝦、蟹、螺、貝等海洋生物,牠們的有機造形樣貌與美感令藝術家范承宗為之著迷,他將多種海洋生物的造形特徵揉合在一起,並以竹、木、繩材進行構築與編織,創作出樣貌特殊且具有儀式感的空間地景裝置,入夜後牠將亮起隨呼吸頻率忽明忽滅的光,如一頭在夜裡甦醒的巨獸,帶著島民們神往海洋故事裡的神秘龍宮。
