The Taiwan women's art movement began to brew in the 1980s and sprouted in the 1990s. In the 1990s, besides museums and galleries in Taiwan holding exhibitions related to female artists, the opening of the media led to a significant increase in reports and publications related to women's art, promoting the development of contemporary women's art in Taiwan.
The "Reconstructing the World: Gender and Body in Contemporary Art" exhibition features works by five contemporary female artists whose life experiences are linked to Tainan. Their creative media are diverse, including video installations, fiber weaving, mixed media, painting, photography, and site-specific creations. The exhibition guides the audience to consider the mother's body, the gendered body of society, digital bodies and voices, the surface of the body carrying cultural symbols, the presentation of indigenous cultural symbols and signs through extensive physical labor, and the intersection of linear virtual space and physical material space in the exhibition hall through the movement and participation of the audience's bodies. This exhibition guides the audience to reflect on the relationship between our bodies and society, culture, race, and the overlapping spaces of virtual and reality.
