This conversation brings together the curator and three participating Taiwanese artists—Chen Yin-Ju, Yao Jui-Chung, and Kuang-Yu Tsui—to reflect on Kino Utopia as a space where images move across time, memory, and imagined futures.
Through cosmological healing, political reenactment, and bodily action, the artists explore Taiwan’s historical memory, postwar identity, democratization, and local transformation, inviting Polish audiences into a dialogue on freedom, collective consciousness, and the resonances between Taiwan and Poland.

本次對談邀請策展人與三位參展藝術家陳瀅如、姚瑞中、崔廣宇,從「Kino Utopia」出發,談論影像如何穿越時間與空間,召喚台灣的歷史記憶、戰後身份、民主化經驗與地方變遷。三位藝術家分別以宇宙療癒、政治重演與身體行動,回應人類苦難、集體意識與現代化衝突,邀請波蘭觀眾在過去與未來交錯之處,重新理解台灣,也展開兩地關於記憶、自由與身份的對話。
