Initiated by Yipei Lee. The keywords are collective and collaborative engagement with islanders, participants, artists, cultural practitioners, and local communities. Each keyword is defined by the participant or creator and displayed as footnotes. Many thanks to West Bund Museum Shanghai and Kunsthaus NRW.
Definitions:
- Everyone is connected to each other. (Orchid Island) ↩︎
- Many islands are the tip of a subterranean mountain, formed from soaring lava. Islands are often difficult to reach. (NRW, Germany) ↩︎
- Alone in this context does not mean lonely, but rather at peace and fully satisfied. (NRW, Germany) ↩︎
- Symbols of Harvest. (Mazu Island) ↩︎
- Individual people connect with each other. (NRW, Germany) ↩︎
- If patches of lavender are always a symbol of romantic intimacy, then it’s the very nature of desire that keeps the attraction alive and romantic! (Shanghai) ↩︎
- The island is a home created by God, a home we will not leave for the rest of our lives. (Orchid island) ↩︎
- A destiny bound up with war and chaos. (Malaysia) ↩︎
- A Taiwanese classic, the oyster farmers have been living with the sea and sea breeze for generations, in accordance with nature. (Taiwan) ↩︎
- Just the right amount of acidity, like a guide. (Shanghai) ↩︎
- An island is a place of peace and tranquillity. You only hear the waves and the chirping of the birds. (NRW, Germany) ↩︎
- The dream of a beautiful, lonely island full of tranquillity. (NRW Germany) ↩︎
- Traces of Life. (Taiwan) ↩︎
- The product of technology. (Shanghai) ↩︎
- The memories of leaving and returning to the island are like a USB, and need to be connected in order for the memories to be restored. When you plug it in, you can get a lot of memory, but when you unplug it, there is nothing. (Orchid Island) ↩︎
- From the Latin Vulcanus «Vulcano», name of the god of fire and of an island of the Lipari group.
In fact, the coincidence between the ancient name of an island with ‘Vulcano’ I believe is a useful anthropological explanation to tell the intimate being of an island. Its independence is sacred, just as in the same way it cannot live without the sea because it is what keeps it afloat. (Sicily, Italy) ↩︎ - Each cardamom is an island, a secret beating heart, a hot, sleeping volcanic island, a tongue that speaks softly of darkness and longing. (Shanghai) ↩︎
- A firm liking can give rise to strength that will shine in the darkness of the night. (Shanghai) ↩︎
