蔡明穎, Ming-Ying TSAI
M.Y.T. Architects
Taiwan, Taipei
Since 1999, I have been involved in projects ranging from interior design to the renovation of old buildings. I obtained my architect license in 2004. Subsequently, from 2005 to 2007, I pursued further studies at the Berlage Institute of Architecture in the Netherlands. After a year of working at an architectural firm in the Netherlands, I returned to Taiwan. With experience in various fields and scales of work, as an architect, I aim to explore urban spaces and address public issues of urban regeneration and sustainable development. Through architectural redesign, spatial reorganization, or curatorial art interventions, I seek to integrate resources in a maximized manner to strategize and design, allowing the general public to understand and experience living spaces from different perspectives, thus prompting a reevaluation of the spaces we inhabit.
Multilayered Exhibition Strategy
Using two examples for multi-level presentations (tentative):
1. Free-flying Black Bats
Breaking away from the traditional confines of enclosed exhibition spaces, we aim to extend visitor pathways from indoor exhibition areas to the outdoors, enticing people to linger. By incorporating outdoor spaces, visitors can immerse themselves in the thematic journey of the exhibition, drawing them closer to explore the historical significance behind it, leaving a lasting impression. Meaningful integration with local settings and scenes allows the exhibition to seamlessly blend into everyday life.
2. School Architecture Journey by a Female Architect:
Through mobile exhibition units, we embark on a quest to discover the fantastical school architecture of Taiwan from the 1960s to the 1980s. As we open this extraordinary suitcase of dreams, we traverse through the history of Taiwanese school architecture, walking and learning simultaneously. Through the process of collection and exchange, we gather these memories back into the suitcase, engaging in interactive exhibitions that accompany the journey of the mobile school, fostering mutual growth.
