I love writing and learning new things in order to better educate those in need. I also enjoy hackathons and adventures around the world.

MV | 曾昱嘉 疑心病 - Yu Chia Tseng Paranoid
Yu-Chia Tseng (Chinese: 曾郁嘉, 1988-), a female young artist, was born in Taiwan. After completing the undergraduate study of the visual arts in 2011, she entered National Hsinchu University of Education for the M.A. program. In 2009, the series of her painting works “Puppet Notes” have been one of the collections at Union Culture Foundation in Taipei.
The latest series of the oil paintings by Yu-Chia Tseng is “Fairy Tale Wishes”. It is obvious for people to discover that the main character of the series is a wooden puppet without any facial expressions. The artist expresses adults’ wishes by displaying children’s favorite goods. The puppet represents a male or a female person living in the dreamy material world—as a candy house or casino district. The series of “Fairy Tale Wishes”, like theater performances, the artist depicts them as gorgeous scenes of luxury. Besides, the dim background on the art works implies the unknown ending of the different stories. Living in the commercial-leading times, the artist would like to advise people to think and create individual values.
