作品簡介
...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
澳洲藝術家 Tanya Schultz 以 Pip & Pop 為名，使用上百公斤的細砂糖、亮粉、顏料與裝飾小物，打造一整片讓人無法抗拒的絢爛綺麗。
Schultz 一向對關於追求烏托邦的故事深深著迷，更奇妙的是不同文化中都可以找到類似的故事，不論是尋找失落的幻境或是抽象的夢想與愛，彷彿是你我共同的嚮往、人類共通的語言。
在特別為粉樂町打造的魔幻世界中，藝術家借用了臺灣觀眾所熟悉的《桃花源》典故，並融入《日月潭白鹿》、《牛郎與織女》等傳說，探索人們對於物質豐足與美夢成真的渴望。烏托邦的故事看似是為了逃避現實，卻也同時回應了現今物質與消費文化當道的世界，藝術家藉由充滿甜蜜夢幻的糖果世界，反思現實社會中那些看似美好卻是虛浮的錯覺瞬間。
松山文創園區前身為「臺灣菸酒公賣局松山菸廠」，七十多年的製菸歲月，留下的不只是迷人菸草氣味，還有令人驚豔的菸廠古蹟建物。
松山文創園區之營運目標為實踐古蹟建築活化做為各項藝文、文創活動，同時也期望成為產業基地，提供跨界多元展演空間，奠定松山文創園區品牌形象。未來期許在整合松山文創園區具備之育成、輔導、展覽與行銷等多項功能後，注入現有資源及能量，帶動群聚效應，形塑松山文創園區成為臺北市設計及文化創意產業之原創基地。
Australian artist Tanya Schultz works under the name Pip & Pop to create super-colorful artworks from materials such as sugar, glitter, sweets, toy animals, plastic flowers, and everyday craft materials.
Schultz has always been interested in mankind’s tendency to narrate myths about utopia: looking for paradise, finding love or imagining another world. It is as if this constant search for perfection is a universal language among people of all cultures and backgrounds.
Peach Blossom makes reference to several stories familiar to Taiwanese people: Finding Sun Moon Lake, The Weaver Girl and The Herd Boy, and Peach Blossom Spring. Weaving together multiple historical and cultural references, Peach Blossom explores notions of blissful abundance and temporary pleasure. Parallels are drawn between the illusory nature of these imagined worlds and the promise and allure of the commercial world, where we are enticed to partake in happy consumption.
Reconstructed from what used to be the Songshan Tobacco Plant, The Songshan Cultural and Creative Park was designated as the 99th District historic site by the Taipei City government in 2001. To regenerate and restore its use, the park was revamped in 2011 to provide a place for diversified cultural and creative exhibitions. The park actively collaborated in a variety of cultural and art events, and organized design, audiovisual and cross industries exhibitions. After integrating various purposes such as education, guidance, exhibition and retail, the Songshan Cultural and Creative Park hopes to concentrate its existing resources and energy, transforming historic buildings into forerunning site for the development of design and cultural industries in Taipei City.
