Soulangh Culture Village recently had an amazing art installation (東山想像與其物產) by Tainan artist Zhang Ya-hui.

Her exhibit was a sensory extravaganza of natural materials taken from the Dongshan farming community where she was raised and meticulously arranged in pleasingly colorful patterns to show the beauty of nature.
