優選獎作品│在我眼中，你是如此的美麗 You Are So Beautiful in My Eyes
林戎依 (b.1989) 臺東縣成功鎮小馬 (Piyoho) 部落阿美族人。因父親的家族是傳統長老教會，在當時參與豐年祭等祭儀是不被允許的活動，不過母親家族每年都有家人持續參與，使她從小生活在阿美族生活圈中，因此在面對自己族群文化時不會感到陌生，但總有無法真實感受族群認同的遺憾；直到2010年林戎依在都蘭部落看見阿美族傳統製衣工藝品―樹皮布，開始透過此工藝的學習過程找到自我肯定的部分，也成為她連結自身族群的橋樑，並致力傳承臺灣原住民族樹皮布文化與當代織物美學的創新結合。
此作以靈魂之窗―眼睛，闡述人類習以為常地用「眼睛」審視彼此，依膚色、長相、性別乃至身分地位、種族等特徵而有認知差異與分別，比如旅外時甚至從小在自身家鄉的部落青年雖留著族群的血液，但面對來自社會或部落的眼光，不知如何面對自己的身分。再則社會大眾對女性根深蒂固的想法，當她親自上山採集樹木時受到許多人的質疑，甚至建議應由男性來做才是。林戎依表示：「認同自己不是得到他人的肯定才開始，而是從認同自己就已經開始了」。她運用樹皮布色澤的深淺以及紋路的不同，呈現每一部位的皮膚；作品從一顆完整的眼睛到瞳孔再深入地從瞳孔裡看見自己，以三部分轉譯作品的意象與創作過程。
一、眼睛：愛我們的人正在注視著自己。
二、瞳孔及殘缺的身體：運用廢棄的假人代表人身體，甚至內心的殘缺不足，重新給予養分讓樹皮布在身體上長出新的生命。
三、瞳孔裡的我們：當我們被注視時，我們的樣子映入在對方的瞳孔裡，由神經帶入使人感受到我們的模樣。
樹皮布就像人的皮膚，每次看著樹皮布都有此感受：「這就是我們啊！」那顏色有暗有淡、紋路有深淺，沒有一張是一模一樣，這不就是我們嗎？我們都是獨一無二的自己，無人能取代。―林戎依
Halomai of Amis descent is from the Piyoho village in Chenggong Township, Taitung County of Taiwan.Due to the Presbyterian Christian background on her father’s side of the family, she was forbidden to attend harvest festivals and other rituals. However, family members on her mother’s side have always actively taken part in such rituals; therefore, she did grow up in an environment surrounded by Amis culture and is familiar with her own indigenous background. Nonetheless, she had felt in the past that something was missing, preventing her from feeling completely accepted by her people village. In 2010, Halomai saw in the Atolan village a traditional Amis handcrafted garment made with tree bark and began learning the craft. This process has allowed her to attain a sense of self-acceptance and has also become a bridge for her to connect with her hometown. She is now dedicated in passing down the Taiwanese indigenous tree bark textile artistry and also integrates it in innovative ways to become a part of the contemporary textile aesthetic.
This artwork is about the window to the soul, the eye, and conveys the fact that people are used to using their “eyes” to judge others based on the color of their skin, what they look like, their gender, and even their status, race, which could lead to cognitive differences and discrepancies. For example, a youth that lives outside of the village or even if she has grown up in the village may become unsure of her own identity when dealing with prejudices from society or even from her own village. Furthermore, society also holds certain biases on women, as seen with the doubts and concerns from other people experienced by Halomai when she went into the mountains to collect materials from the trees, and some even suggested that a man should be doing that sort of work. Nevertheless, Halomai believes that “self-acceptance does not begin when others accept you; it starts when you accept yourself.” Using barks of different colors and patterns to represent the skin on different parts of the body, she starts by making an eye and then the pupil, with herself reflected on the pupil. A video is used as a supporting tool to show the concept behind the work and the creative process in the follow three sections:
1. Eyes: Person that loves us is looking at us.
2. Pupils and Imperfect Body: An abounded mannequin is used to present the human body, which also further represents an imperfect inner state. Nourishment is then provided to the bark once again for new life to grow on the body.
3. Us on the Pupils: When we are being gazed upon, we are reflected on the pupils of the person, with what we look like carried by the nerve to the brain for the person to see us.
Tree barks are like human skin, and each time I see a bark I always feel like, ‘This is just like us!’. Barks come in various light and dark shades, and have deep and shallow patterns; no two are exactly the same. Isn’t that just like us? We are each unique and irreplaceable. ― Halomai

SUMMARY
=======
Taiwan ( ( listen), UK also ), officially the Republic of China (ROC), is a state in East Asia. Its neighbors include the People's Republic of China (PRC) to the west, Japan to the northeast, and the Philippines to the south. It is the most populous state and largest economy that is not a member of the United Nations.
The island of Taiwan, formerly known as Formosa, was inhabited by aborigines before the 17th century, when Dutch and Spanish colonies opened the island to mass Han immigration. After a brief rule by the Kingdom of Tungning, the island was annexed in 1683 by the Qing dynasty, the last dynasty of China. The Qing ceded Taiwan to Japan in 1895 after the Sino-Japanese War. While Taiwan was under Japanese rule, the Republic of China (ROC) was established on the mainland in 1912 after the fall of the Qing dynasty. Following the Japanese surrender to the Allies in 1945, the ROC took control of Taiwan. However, the resumption of the Chinese Civil War led to the ROC's loss of the mainland to the Communists, and the flight of the ROC government to Taiwan in 1949. Although the ROC continued to claim to be the legitimate government of China, its effective jurisdiction had, since the loss of Hainan in 1950, been limited to Taiwan and several small islands, with the main island making up 99% of its de facto territory. As a founding member of the United Nations, the ROC represented China at the UN until 1971, when it lost its seat to the PRC.
In the early 1960s, Taiwan entered a period of rapid economic growth and industrialization, creating a stable industrial economy. In the 1980s and early 1990s, it changed from a one-party military dictatorship dominated by the Kuomintang to a multi-party democracy with a semi-presidential system. Taiwan is the 22nd-largest economy in the world, and its high-tech industry plays a key role in the global economy. It is ranked highly in terms of freedom of the press, healthcare, public education, economic freedom, and human development. The country benefits from a highly skilled workforce and is among the most highly educated countries in the world with one of the highest percentages of its citizens holding a tertiary education degree.The PRC has consistently claimed sovereignty over Taiwan and asserted the ROC is no longer in legitimate existence. Under its One-China policy the PRC refuses diplomatic relations with any country that recognizes the ROC. Today, 17 countries maintain official ties with the ROC but many other states maintain unofficial ties through representative offices and institutions that function as de facto embassies and consulates. Although Taiwan is fully self-governing, most international organizations in which the PRC participates either refuse to grant membership to Taiwan or allow it to participate only as a non-state actor. Internally, the major division in politics is between the aspirations of eventual Chinese unification or Taiwanese independence, though both sides have moderated their positions to broaden their appeal. The PRC has threatened the use of military force in response to any formal declaration of independence by Taiwan or if PRC leaders decide that peaceful unification is no longer possible. The PRC and ROC standoff dates from the Chinese Civil War and has extended through the first, second and third Taiwan Strait crises to the present day.
