Island Is Land of Dream

Island Is Land of Dreams commemorates Lin Pang-soong’s departure from his hometown of Tungkang, Pingtung as a youth and celebrates his return in old age. The exhibition begins in 1975 in Lin’s student days away from home in Taipei at National Taiwan Normal University, and spans over forty years to his current works from all over the world, all of which is brought back for the retrospective at the Pingtung Art Museum, as well as the touring exhibition to Setouchi-city Art Museum in Japan.

The exhibition also features a on-going performance piece, in which Lin Pang-soong sends hand-painted Homebound Letters, from his travels back to his home in Taiwan. Lin has accumulated thousands of letters from dozens of countries for over ten years, and will continue this performance for as long as he can.
