Huang said the Taiwan Pavilion exhibition is curated to echo the central theme "How will we live together." Through the analysis of unique cases and interdisciplinary collaborations, the curatorial teams put forward the project called "Primitive Migration from/to Taiwan" to explore the boundaries between humanity, the environment, industry, and nature.
