Scenes of Neihai Village

Walking Grass Agriculture

Combining pixel art styles, digital printing, and community co-creation, this work integrates the outcomes of frottage, collage, and painted tile workshops to transform wetlands, ecology, agriculture, fishing, and settlement memories into a local landscape. Installed at the temple courtyard and community bulletin boards, the project allows Wang Ye worship, schoolchildren’s creations, and residents’ life experiences to converge, serving as a new gateway that carries the stories and community identity of Neihai.

Walking Grass Agriculture

Walking Grass Agriculture / Art Group, founded in 2014, is an interdisciplinary collective working across visual art, design, and curatorial practice. Led by core members Han-Sheng Chen and Hsing-Yu Liu, whose backgrounds span new media art and art history, the group emphasizes residency-based experience and observation. Their practice explores folk culture, migration, and processes of transformation through studies of topography, modernology, and material culture, translating agricultural experiences into artistic methodologies. In recent years, their work has focused on ecology, urban transformation, and gender issues. Their works have been exhibited at the Centre Pompidou in France, Chinese Culture Center of San Francisco, Bangkok Biennale, Taipei Fine Arts Museum, Tainan Art Museum, Chiayi Art Museum, and Neiwei Arts Center in Kaohsiung.
The Neihai Community Development Association in Dayuan District, Taoyuan, is located along the coastal area where Xinjie River and Laojie River converge, within the nationally protected Xucuogang Wetland. The community is home to a unique lagoon ecosystem and the century-old Guiwen Temple culture. Upholding a spirit of intergenerational solidarity, the association actively operates a community care center (Long-term Care Level C), providing meal services and health promotion activities for local elders. Through disaster preparedness initiatives and local cultural promotion, the association is committed to building a sustainable, inclusive, and community-centered coastal environment.
