Quarter-life
The NMAG Project Space will open with the first display curated by Taiwanese artist You-Na Wang. Wang invited the Taiwanese photographers Chih-Hsien Chen, Jill Chien, Abby Gong and Yen-Lan Guan (Yoko).
Taiwan is an island, which had been colonised by Spain, Netherlands, Japan and China. We are the first generation born as totally Taiwanese. We have different opinions and experiences than our parents. Growing up realizing we are not adolescents anymore, we are given full responsibility. What are the different attitudes of these young Taiwanese photographers towards contemporary society? What are their day-to-day experiences? And, which stories do they want to share? Quarter-life shows the different attitudes of a new generation towards modern Taiwanese society.
