4tify Bio-leather Featured In Taiwan Museum.

喜歡看展、拍美照，或是對永續生活感興趣的朋友們，你們勞動節連假打算去哪裡走走呢？
​
📣 快來 臺中市纖維工藝博物館，一次可以觀賞到兩種截然不同的美！
除了華麗精美的「平埔原住民十字繡展」外，在另一頭的 1C 展區還有一個神祕又充滿哲學氣息的超酷展覽強勢登場！
​
​
🌿 《另一種採集思考：廢棄再生、精計用餘與允許消失》
當鳳梨渣遇見建築美學
如果你以為纖維只是布料，那這場展覽絕對會翻轉你的想像！來自馬來西亞的華裔建築師 張文婷 (Wendy Teo)，把腦筋動到了「鳳梨渣」上
​
🍍 鳳梨做的皮？：
創作者利用鳳梨渣，加入細菌與酵母發酵，竟然能夠生成出像皮革一樣韌性強、還能防火的 「生物皮革」！
​
📐 建築師的摺疊藝術：
從本館館藏的「插箕」作為出發點，呼應相互交錯的竹籐，張文婷用折疊切割的方式，將平面皮革變得像蛇鱗一樣折疊、交錯，變成了超有律動感的立體藝術品！
​
❤️ 浪漫的「允許消失」：
生無皮革最特別的是，它們會隨著時間和環境慢慢分解，最終回歸自然。這不只是藝術，更是一種對地球最溫柔的告白。

Another Mode of Gathering

Post-use regeneration, calculated use of off-cuts, and allowing disappearance.

Now on view at the Taiwan Museum of Fiber Arts Museum of Fiber Arts, Taichung, Taiwan

The material used here is a plant-based leather grown from pineapple waste, developed with Bioeconomy Corporation and 4tify.

It is formed through fermentation, can be used, and will eventually return to nature.

In this process, form is not created, but allowed to emerge. I act as a coordinator of conditions, working with material, time, and intention.

This work is not a fixed object, but part of a cycle, from generation to transformation, and back again.

“Nothing is truly gathered unless it is also allowed to return.”

A quiet thought that stayed with me throughout this making process.

This work is part of “And Then” at the Museum of Fiber Art,
Taichung, Taiwan
March 31 – June 31, 2026

It begins with an almost forgotten object, the dustpan.
Something once close to the body, now slowly fading from our daily gestures.

From there, the work moves through material.
A plant-based leather grown from pineapple waste, developed with Bioeconomy Corporation and 4tify.
A material that is not fixed, but responsive.
It shifts, it ages, it carries within it the possibility of disappearance.

What you see here is not a finished object.
It is a moment within a longer cycle.
Folding, adjusting, listening, waiting.

In this process, I am not shaping form as much as I am staying with it.
Holding certain conditions, allowing something to emerge,
and knowing it will one day return.

This video captures a fragment of that in-between.
A work still becoming.

Proud to have our Xymbioz Bio-leather featured in the performance showcasing sustainable materials as a form of art and green expression.

During the NBioShowcase @ IDECS25, I was entrusted with a truly monumental task by Bioeconomy Corporation — to promote biomaterials through a performative art show. As someone rooted firmly in science with no background in the arts, stepping into this creative world meant venturing far outside my ...
