萬華世界  WAN der LAND


《萬華世界 WAN der LAND》Through a contemporary lens, the exhibition encapsulates the rich cultural landscape of Wanhua in six vibrant themes. Using Food Design as the medium, chefs, bartenders, perfumers, lighting designers, musicians, visual designers, etc. collaborate capturing the essence of Wanhua’s culture, and expanding into to a spacial, aromatic, auditory, and visual experience.

Wanhua plays an indispensable and major role in the exploration of Taiwan’s native culture. When it comes to Wanhua, the first stereotypes that come to mind are the mob bosses, temples, prostitutes, or vagrants, but Wanhua is much more. Through in-depth interviews and data collection in the neighborhood, the team turned Wanhua’s life profile into six delicacies in time sequence, As if preparing a top restaurant exclusive to Wanhua—combining the morning temples, markets, Herb Lane, Dali Street, craftsmanship, and the nighttime culture of Night Karaoke Street(Hanamachi). Recreating the fine dining structure, the audience is invited to get a taste of Wanhua. In addition to the delicacies, the audience can experience the unique flavors of "Wanhua World" through sight, hearing, smell, and touch.

In this era, people are urgently attempting to establish the aesthetic and culture of Taiwan. Wanhua’s rich culture landscape may be opening the door to new possibilities. Ordinary life in Wanhua continues to capture and remember their precious culture. This exhibition invites people to gain a new perspective and appreciation of Wanhua, and paves a path to showcase future developments of Wanhua culture. Capturing wanhua’s unique history is not just to look back on and recall, but to create new possibilities and opportunities for the future.

《萬華世界 WAN der LAND》展覽將以貼近現今觀點的視角,將中萬華地區的人文風景收斂梳理成六大精彩的主題,透過「食物設計」作為訊息載體,由廚師、調酒師、調香師、燈光設計師、音樂創作者、視覺設計師等共同跨域創作,將萬華的文化內涵與常民生活重新設計轉譯,延伸到空間、氣味、聲音、視覺等五感體驗。

一府二鹿三艋舺的萬華,在探尋臺灣本土文化的路上扮演著不可或缺的重要角色。提及萬華,不乏刻板印象中的角頭、宮廟、站壁、或者是遊民,但萬華絕對不止於此。策展團隊透過深入街坊的訪談與資料收集,將萬華的生活輪廓按照時序變成六道佳餚;彷彿籌備一間萬華專屬的頂級餐廳,將早上的廟宇、市場、青草巷、大理街、工藝、到夜晚的花街特色文化,重新以精緻料理 (Fine Dining) 的架構轉譯為前菜、湯品、主餐、飲品、甜點,邀請觀眾一道接著一道地細細品嚐萬華的萬種風情。除了精彩的食物演繹,觀眾亦可在現場透過眼、耳、鼻等感官直接感受《萬華世界》的獨到韻味。

在這個迫切勾勒臺灣風土樣貌與文化定位的時代中,萬華地區所富藏的人文風景與生活軌跡似乎為其打開了一道門,現行的常民生活正札實地紀錄且存續著寶貴的地方文化。本展覽期許在邀請大眾來閱讀萬華風美之餘,更能以另一種新的視角重新理解萬華、解讀萬華,讓萬華在未來能以不同以往的新穎姿態展現在眾人眼前。萬華獨特的歷史痕跡不等同僅能原地踏步、回憶過往,而是成為其邁向各種可能的蓄積能量,匯聚更多優異人才與不同族群前來挖掘、探索、深根,更重要的是,提出更多未來的可能性與機會,長出屬於在地的果實!
