Resonant Encounters is a curated exhibition showcasing six new media art pieces created by young Taiwanese artists. The artworks explore themes such as the symbiotic relationship between humans and nature, generational differences, the impact of artificial intelligence, cultural and habitual differences in cohabitation, women's rights issues, and animal environmental conservation. These artists, all students in their early twenties studying design and art, represent the unique perspectives and responses of Generation Z to environmental and societal issues.

One featured work integrates projection with live dance to examine the relationship between humans and AI. Another utilizes image mapping technology to project fragmented images of endangered animals onto spherical objects positioned under air conditioning vents, symbolizing the butterfly effect of air conditioning use on animal conservation. Additionally, a VR-like headgear installation employs multifaceted mirrors to present images created by elders using outdated aesthetics on social media, reflecting cultural and aesthetic shifts across generations. These artworks not only showcase the artists' concerns about their environment but also demonstrate their creative responses to societal issues through familiar media.

As the curator of this exhibition and a member of Generation X, I have witnessed the resilience and independent thinking of the younger generation throughout the curation process. These artworks are not mere artistic expressions but profound reflections and inspirations on contemporary issues. Through this exhibition, we have documented our encounters and exchanges, marking it as a significant chapter in our lives. I hope this exhibition serves as a source of blessing and encouragement for the future endeavors of these young artists, while also providing a platform for deeper societal reflections and discussions through the medium of art.
