Gin Huang Gallery at Art Taipei 2025pei 2025
In a global era shaped by accelerating cultural, political, and technological shifts, the notion of “borders” has become increasingly complex. Borders today are not merely geographic—they extend into culture, language, identity, and psychology. They define, divide, but also enable encounters and dialogues.
Presented by Gin Huang Gallery at Art Taipei 2025, Perceptual Borders: Where Existence Intersects positions art as a means of exploring these liminal thresholds. The exhibition brings together five artists whose practices reveal how borders can be felt, disrupted, or reimagined:
Featured Artists
Wolfgang Betke（Germany）
Feng Xiao-Min 馮驍鳴 (France/China)
Igor Dobrowolski（Poland）
齊藤智史 Satoshi Saitoh（Japan）
Van Ray（Germany）
Feng Xiao-Min’s abstract paintings merge Eastern ink-inspired sensibilities with Western approaches to color and spatiality, creating canvases that are both meditative and transcultural. Igor Dobrowolski’s metal reliefs, marked by corrosion, fracture, and weight, embody the scars of history and the fragility of existence. They confront viewers with ethical questions of empathy, resilience, and human responsibility.
Satoshi Saitoh’s intimate wooden sculptures present figures that balance innocence with solitude, situated between reality and dream. These works embody the psychological borderlands of vulnerability and spiritual reflection.
Van Ray brings the visual language of street art into the contemporary art sphere, combining text, imagery, and pop-cultural symbols to critique consumerism, freedom, and control. His works reveal the contradictions of society while transforming critique into dialogue.
Wolfgang Betke’s layered paintings operate as psychological landscapes—fragmentary, chaotic, and temporal. Through gestures, textures, and symbolic fragments, his canvases resist linear narrative, offering instead a field of perception where memory, thought, and subconscious imagery coexist.
Perceptual Borders underscores not only aesthetic diversity but also the affective and dialogical role of art. The works do not demand explanation; they invite viewers to feel, to reflect, and to encounter themselves in relation to others. Through this exhibition, Gin Huang Gallery affirms its curatorial commitment to emotionally driven practice and cross-cultural dialogue, transforming borders from markers of division into spaces of resonance and shared meaning.
