Intangible Cultural Heritage

Cultural heritage embodies the historical memory of a land and its people. It plays a crucial role in shaping national cultural identity. By preserving and passing down the core values of intangible traditional culture, it also highlights the diversity and uniqueness of Taiwanese culture.
Cultural heritage in Taiwan is categorized into 15 types under three main groups: tangible cultural heritage, intangible cultural heritage, and underwater cultural heritage.[more]

Velvet Craft

The flowers are made of silk and copper wires. The velvet strips are made in seven steps, including arranging, brushing, tying, cutting, rolling, trimming and tying. The whole thing looks fluffy. Today, there are still velvet flower ornaments used in the wedding of the emperor and empress in the Forbidden City in Beijing.

Traditionally, silk is used, but Chen Lifan uses rayon yarn, a sustainable material with FSC certification, to study local materials. Detailed research content can be found in the article [ more ]

Flower entanglement craft

The flowers, made of paper, thread and metal wire, are assembled after the pieces are cut and twisted, giving the whole a shiny and bright appearance. They were used as brooches to adorn the Olympic team in 2024.

There are many types of materials used according to the techniques, and Chen Lifan uses rayon silk, which is a sustainable material with FSC certification.

Kingfisher feather craft

It consists of three parts: the body, the jade feather and the decorative materials. The body is mostly made of gold, silver, copper and paper. The metal body is made using techniques such as filigree and inlay, while the jade feather is fixed on the body through steps such as selecting jade, arranging jade and pasting. It is matched with decorative materials such as pearls and corals, showing the exquisiteness and magnificence of its craftsmanship.

Traditionally, emerald feathers are used, but Chen Lifan uses rayon yarn, a sustainable material with FSC certification, to study non-animal materials. Detailed research content can be found in the article [ more ]

Low-key non-visual touch｜The existence of subtle breath

Osmanthus fragrans has auspicious meanings because its name is associated with "gui" (gui) and "noble". It is often seen in potted plants in our daily lives, which makes me feel a low-key familiarity with it. The small white flowers exude a refreshing fragrance, and the dark green matte leaves and straight branches are faintly smelled even if I can't see them. Its subtle and non-noisy presence in the environment often makes me smile knowingly.

Osmanthus is a kind of hidden beauty in the environment, slowing down the chaotic and noisy fast life by feeling the tiny details in life.

2023 A+ Cultural Assets Creative Awards, Special Award for Outstanding Cultural Assets Crafts and Design

A society that is thriving and prosperous is an ideal state. Over the past four years, due to the pandemic, we have watched the prosperity fade away and stagnate, and we are returning cautiously.

When I regained my vitality, I felt prosperous like flowers in full bloom. The contrast between the clusters of flowers and the bleakness of the vitality as it faded made me cherish the present moment even more.

Flowers bloom again to show the glory of velvet. ...
