The 2026 Taoyuan Land Art Festival brought together artists and architects from 14 countries to create site-specific installations along Taiwan’s 35-kilometre Pearl Coast. Through collaboration, community engagement, and a deep response to the coastal landscape, the festival demonstrates how art can foster cultural dialogue, strengthen local identity, and leave a lasting legacy beyond the exhibition itself.

Cloud City is a cardboard art installation and co-creation workshop developed by INTODESIGN Lab and ArchiBlur Lab in Tainan, Taiwan. The project invited sixty children to collaboratively imagine and construct a shared urban environment through play, experimentation, and storytelling. Using lightweight cardboard as a spatial medium, the installation explored ideas of movement, connectivity, and future cities. Through collective making, Cloud City transformed simple materials into an evolving public landscape shaped by creativity, participation, and shared imagination.

In the Malaysia-China Friendship Park, Kuching, the Red Ribbon Pavilion connects past and present, recalling a pivotal chapter in global history while celebrating the lasting connection between Sarawak, Yunnan, and beyond. Inspired by the contours of the 24-Turns Road, the pavilion honors the Nanyang Mechanics Volunteers who braved the Burma Road during World War II. More than a solemn monument, it embodies resilience, sacrifice, and the ongoing flow of life.
