Comments on the Finalist 

Psychic Theater presents Hung-Chih Peng’s artistic endeavor and experimental use of mediumistic techniques. Inspired by three pioneering figures from Taiwan’s theater scene—TIEN Chi-Yuan (1964–1996), CHEN Ming-Tsai (1961–2003), and CHOU Yi-Chang (1948–2016)—the exhibition evokes “clairvoyance” that informs the installation, sound, video, and performance, challenging the perceptual boundaries of existing materials and methods while expanding the narrative and spatial dimensions of life and death, presence and absence, reality and virtuality. It transforms “unfinishedness” into a creative approach that breaks and connects different boundaries, creating an eerie yet beautiful art form that evokes awe through its unique expression.
