The artist started his residence in Jinzun, Taitung in 2008. Taitung's year-round sunlight, the blue sky and ocean, the flourishing natural wildness, plus the burgeoning flowers in myriad colors that he planted in his garden, all became new elements in his art. The artist let natural light flood into his painting, engaging in a conversation with nature.
The wordPisilian (also spelled "Pisirian") comes from the indigenous Amis language and means "place where goats graze." It is also the name of a village, located in the Sanxiantai area of Taitung.
