Through on-site filming, experiential visual glasses, interview manuals, and digital interaction, various aspects of the lives of visually impaired individuals are translated into easily understandable and communicable content. This allows the public to gain a renewed understanding of visually impaired individuals from both physiological and daily perspectives, reducing barriers caused by a lack of awareness. The aim is to promote diverse perceptions and understanding through education and experience, and in collaboration with the Taiwan Accessible Environmental Design Association, this initiative will be implemented in schools and public outreach spaces to expand its social impact.

We compiled our interviews with visually impaired people from different professions into a book, breaking the public's singular perception of the career choices of visually impaired people. The booklet is divided into five volumes, covering aspects such as physical health, mobility, entertainment, communication, and assistive devices for visually impaired individuals. By using differentiated shapes and colors to correspond to various pathologies, the distance and fear caused by eye diseases can be reduced. We hope to transform the "invisible" into a more comprehensive way of understanding. It records the daily lives of visually impaired people from a first-person perspective and incorporates visual simulation devices for six common eye diseases.

When the lights glow, the twelve zodiacs and Taiwan’s endemic plants intertwine in a dance of light and shadow. The naming and forms of these native species often harbor the silhouettes and spiritual essence of the zodiac animals. We adopted the zodiac as a unified visual language, using 'Light'—the origin of all life—as the most direct medium to convey the profound beauty of this land. Plants thrive on light, while culture reveals its depth through it. Through the pulses of these kinetic lanterns, we visualize the often-overlooked natural heritage, making the connection between the local people and Taiwan’s biodiversity both visible and vivid. Through the warmth of a touch, you breathe life into these plants. Even without venturing into the mountains, one can feel the blessings rooted in this land—bringing Taiwan’s rarest species to life within the palm of your hand. This experience aims to sow a seed of curiosity, inspiring people to proactively explore the unique flora thriving in their surroundings.
