【Art Talk】Building Palaces: An Eternal Recurrence
Palaces is a five-hour-long theatre work inspired by one of the five most mysterious cases of Taiwan. Playwright WU Ming-lun spent two years working on Palaces and will be unveiling his research, readings, and explorations of the theme and creative method with audiences. WU will also be sharing the guidelines of deconstructing and reconstructing the collected materials, the major incidents that impacted the work during its creative process, as well as the central theme of Palaces.
Our Theatre actress CHUANG Ting-yu participated in Palaces back when it was still a one-person show and was the first leading actress during its early presentations. CHUANG is also one of the few people who read the early script of the work and is rumored to be a key figure in the decision of the work's ending. CHUANG will be sharing how she conjectured the inner state of the characters of Palaces and her initial imaginations on the work.

About Art Talk
Art is a summary of life experiences.
"Art Talk" is a project which gathers together renowned artists from different fields such as music, theater or movie domains for sharing their thought about art with the public, telling us how art can communicate and resonate with its audience.
Creative work is like an extension of every incident in one's life. The accumulation of your everyday experience, the moments when your imagination runs wild, and your persistent cultivation of hobbies can all be the sources of your inspiration, enabling you to write stories that recount your memories of life.
So why not do some brainstorming to see which part of your life, no matter how trivial it is, can be turned into a work of art?
《Art Talk》 gives you an opportunity to interact directly with art and brings wonderful surprises into your life!
