"In this solo exhibition themed on war, Chen Ching-Yao chooses the perspective of Battleground Girls as his entry point. The images he created are still in the style of anime. Through mixing historical and contemporary times as well as the approach of cosplay, he revisits and reconstructs Taiwanese people’s WWII experience, and employs this context to strike a dialogue with the virtual space of unlimited warfare, which is the global situation that this island must now deal with." - Chen Fei-Hao
“What I desire to paint is precisely this moment of here and now, which only belongs to me, unrepeatable, and produces a one and only experience. What I hope to deliver is the overflowing emotion described in the poetic lines, “the moon from that past moment remains today, yet to present it to you would be in vain”—it is a private, indescribable, and even unsharable moment.” - Lin Chuan-Chu
