Green Island Biennial: Duration of 149 Sea Miles

2025





On May 17, 1951, the first political prisoners set out from Keelung Harbor, journeying 149 sea miles to reach Green Island.

Green Island, a tropical island visible from Taiwan, lies within sight yet seems distant. It exists as a temporal boundary, forming a distinct world with time and space that differ from those of the outside.

This year‘s key visual deconstructs and reconstructs Green Island’s landscape using geometric language, which interprets the curatorial theme, highlighting the temporal and spatial contrasts across generations. This geometric landscape symbolizes cross-generational fusion, encouraging viewers to experience fragmented time, space, and landscape imagination visually. Green Island evokes multilayered memories across eras, letting us reawaken our sense of time and space.
