Taiwan has a diverse religious culture. To explore the meaning of religions and faith in the contemporary times, the National Center of Photography and Images is holding an exhibition delving into a myriad of religious concepts. It features over 100 works by 16 artists. Let’s take a look with FTV reporter Stephany Yang.

These works are by Stanley Fung, a photographer and pastor. He interpreted different Christian parables by utilizing different lighting techniques.

Another series of works is by Chen Po-i. He utilized long exposure techniques, shot various photos in the temple, and assembled over 300 raw images.

Chen Po-i captures the essence of temple spaces by using long exposure techniques to superimpose images, recording the long-term interactions of people in the temple. Stanley Fung, on the other hand, draws inspiration from traditional Christian iconography and biblical stories to create images through directorial photography.

The National Center of Photography and Images has launched a photo exhibit featuring over 100 works by 16 contemporary artists, revealing the profound connotations and emotional connections of faith in contemporary Taiwanese society through the unique perspectives of photography and video. The exhibition is split into three themed sections examining different religions, customs, activities, and spiritual quests in Taiwan.

Through images and videos, we can convey the rich tapestry of Taiwan’s diverse religious landscapes, ranging from Buddhism, Taoism, Animism, Christianity and more. The artists employ unique visual languages and techniques to depict various Taiwanese religious and folk activities, the sacred spaces of temples and people’s quests for answers to life and death’s profound questions. These images invite us to reflect on the connection between our own lives and the mysteries of the unknown.

The exhibition will be held at the National Center of Photography and Images until June 29.
