Mirror of the City: SS Evolution

09/24-10/11, 19:00-21:00

Exhibition Introduction

”Mirror of the City” transforms Taoyuan into a perceptual mirror—one that nurtures all things, while reflecting them back into the city. It also embodies Taoyuan as an organic lifeform in continuous interplay and dynamic evolution: water, mirror, nature, and people.

Across four zones, audiences explore a “Nature” habitat where mist and laser converge, interact with a 3D visual wall in “People” to decode Taoyuan’s industrial and multicultural narratives, and use mobile AR to collect streams of light and infuse them into the ground-projected “Confluence” corridor. The experience ultimately converges at the museum façade, where an immersive light art projection transforms water into a mirror every 30 minutes. Pond landscapes and the pulse of technology take form as a giant fluid lifeform, reflecting Taoyuan’s evolving state of symbiosis.

From October 10–11, the experience evolves further into SS Evolution — Live Version, combining large-scale light projection with a live string performance. Through the resonance of sound and light, audiences experience the flow and eruption of the city’s energy.

Curatorial Unit

iEgoArt Inc.

Founded in September 2014, iEgoArt Inc. is committed to promoting cross-disciplinary exchanges among technology, art, and culture. Through exhibitions and integrated marketing projects, we close the gap between art and the public. Our work spans art curation, artist representation, and creative cultural design. Combining expertise in curation, design, and engineering, iEgoArt Inc. leverages innovative thinking to bridge sensibility and technology, continuously deepening the foundation and impact of art, culture, and education. We believe that art should not be confined inside galleries. Rather, through interdisciplinary integration, art can become part of everyday life, serving as a bridge that connects urban culture and facilitates intergenerational dialogue.

Peppercorns Inc.

Founded in 2016, Peppercorns Interactive Media Art explores the symbiotic relationship between computation and human perception in the age of digital media. Treating code as the ink and brush of our era, we transform data into artistic expression, creating light-based narratives and immersive spatial experiences grounded in computational aesthetics. Bringing together technologists and artists across disciplines, we create works through light-based storytelling, kinetic installations, and real-time interactive systems, constructing poetic spaces of dialogue that bridge logic and emotion, as well as the virtual and the physical. Our work has been presented at leading international platforms, including Ars Electronica (Austria), SIGGRAPH Asia, the Signal Festival (Czech Republic), and the Arte Laguna Prize (Venice, Italy). Building on a rigorous technical foundation and an evolving artistic vision, we continue to expand the language of Taiwanese media art on the global stage.
