Conceived, curated, and directed by Patricio Sarmiento, in collaboration with the Taiwan Ministry of Culture and supported by public and private partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This manifestation was developed as part of D\u2019Days Paris 2016, and positioned Taiwan as Country of Honor through a multi-format cultural program unfolding across several institutions throughout the city of Paris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program brought together exhibitions, workshops, conferences, and a publication, creating a platform for exchange between designers, artisans, institutions, and audiences. It explored key themes such as material innovation, sustainability, and the transmission of savoir-faire within a global context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through this curatorial framework, Taiwan was presented not only as a source of traditional craft knowledge but also as an active contributor to contemporary creative practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
