Nature , Life , Crafts
Like food and drink, the crafts, stress land, climate, lifestyle, and stories about the land. Pottery and bamboo are raw materials that become highly useful objects via transformation in the skilled hands of artists. They come to represent an important part of our culture. As lifestyles change, the ethos and design of handmade goods are coming to emphasize design and creative development. They also echo the modern emphasis on personal cultivation and the pursuit of healthier lives. Nature, lifestyles, and crafts try to guide visiting audiences to an understanding of the land and to explore, unearth, and feel the beauty of crafts. They also renew our understanding of the relationship between modern lifestyles and more traditional crafts.
