NCUE x SUP 2025

Team

In 2025, we are honoured to launch the first edition of the SUP International Artist-in-Residence Programme in Taiwan, hosted in partnership with the National Changhua University of Education (NCUE).

我們很榮幸於 2025 年首次將這項計畫帶至台灣，攜手國立彰化師範大學共同推出「NCUE x SUP 2025 臺英藝術家駐校與交流計畫」。

The Starting Point of International Collaboration -

“NCUE x SUP 2025 Taiwan-UK Artist Residency and Exchange Programme”

The origin of this Taiwan-based residency programme began with a warm human connection. A student of Professor Li-Yan Wang from National Changhua University of Education (NCUE) happened to be the cousin of Samantha (Yun-Ting) Huang, Co-director of SUP Taiwan. It was through this personal link that the two parties had their first interaction. Since January 2024, they began in-depth conversations and discovered a shared passion and vision for arts education and international exchange, gradually developing what would become this collaborative programme.

Co-developed and led by NCUE Fine Art Professor Wang and SUP Taiwan Co-director Huang, the “NCUE x SUP 2025 Taiwan-UK Artist Residency and Exchange Programme” was built from the ground up—tailored to the needs, aspirations, and development of NCUE students and the local arts community. The programme’s goal is to design an international artist-in-residence initiative that enriches an arts university programme in Changhua. It aims to broaden students’ international perspectives while ensuring the programme’s practicality and sustainability, and to foster aspirational student growth and the development of a broader arts ecosystem.

This is not a short-term or performative initiative, but rather a long-term contribution to the advancement of arts education in Taiwan. SUP is committed to fostering meaningful and lasting cultural exchange - ensuring that the programme grows deeply and remains closely connected to academia, ecology, local culture and creativity.

We extend our sincere thanks to the President of NCUE, the College of Liberal Arts, the Office of International and Cross-Strait Affairs, the Office of General Affairs, the Office of Student Affairs, the Environmental Education Center, the Department of Fine Arts office, and the student association of the Fine Arts Department for their strong support in making this programme deeply rooted within the campus.

We also sincerely thank Associate Professor Wen-Cheng Chiu, current Chair of the Department of Fine Arts, for his participation and support, which encouraged enthusiastic involvement from faculty and students. Our gratitude also goes to the Changhua City Mayor’s Office for its generous support, which allowed the programme to reach into the local community and facilitate cultural and artistic exchange.

Finally, we are deeply grateful to all the faculty and students participating in the programme - their enthusiasm and valuable feedback continues to drive the programme forward and ensure that our work remains responsive to the needs of the community, embodying meaningful cultural and educational impact.

國際合作的起點 - 「NCUE x SUP 2025 臺英藝術家駐校與交流計畫」

此次台灣駐校計畫的起點，源自一段溫暖的人際連結。國立彰化師範大學王麗雁教授的一位學生，正是 SUP Taiwan 執行長黃鋆庭的表妹，雙方因這層關係而有了初次交流。自 2024 年一月起，兩人開始深入對話，發現彼此對藝術教育與國際交流擁有共同的熱情與願景，因而逐步構思並推動此次合作計畫的誕生。

在王麗雁教授與執行長黃鋆庭的共同策劃與領導下，「NCUE x SUP 2025 臺英藝術家駐校與交流計畫」從零開始，根據彰化師範大學學生及藝術社群的需求、願景與發展量身訂製。計畫的目標是設計一個符合彰化在地藝術學校需求的國際藝術家駐校計畫，旨在為學生帶來國際視野，同時確保計畫的實際性與永續發展，並促進學生的成長以及藝術生態的發展。

這不僅是一項短期介入或流於形式的任務，而是為台灣藝術教育發展持續貢獻的計畫。SUP 致力於推動有意義且具長遠影響的文化交流，確保此項計畫能夠深入發展，並與學術、生態、在地文化與創意等領域緊密連結。

我們特別感謝國立彰化師範大學校長、文學院、國際暨兩岸事務處、總務處、學務處、環境教育中心、美術學系辦公室以及美術系學生系學會在本計畫推動過程中的大力協助與支持，讓此計畫得以在校園內深根發展。

同時，我們亦誠摯感謝本屆美術系主任邱文正副教授的參與與支持，促使美術系師生積極投入計畫，並感謝彰化市市長辦公室的鼎力支持，讓本計畫得以深入地方社區，促進在地文化與藝術的交流與連結。

我們同樣衷心感謝所有參與計畫的師生，他們的熱情與寶貴回饋推動著計畫的進展，並讓我們的工作始終回應社群需求，發揮深遠的文化意義與教育價值。

SUP Taiwan’s Vision and Role

Led by co-directors Samantha Huang and Amit Rai Sharma, SUP Taiwan is founded on the belief in a long-term connection between art and society, seeking to explore collaborative possibilities both locally and internationally.

With extensive cross-disciplinary experience in the UK’s art, cultural, and educational sectors, the two co-directors bring a forward-thinking and adaptable strategic approach to SUP Taiwan. Their background allows the platform to remain open, responsive, and tailored to different regional contexts.

At its core, SUP believes that art is deeply embedded in public life and social structures, creating bridges between education, workplaces, local institutions, and grassroots communities. Our work in Taiwan reflects this philosophy — transforming international experience into localised models of collaboration, while broadening the scope and depth of cultural exchange.

During the three-month "NCUE x SUP 2025 Taiwan-UK Artist Residency and Exchange Programme," the SUP team has been actively expanding its artistic network across Changhua, Taipei, Taichung, and Tainan. Through partnerships with galleries, art institutions, and independent collectives, we aim to provide artists and students with creative opportunities that extend beyond the traditional classroom or studio setting.

由黃鋆庭與Amit Rai Sharma擔任共同負責人暨執行長的SUP Taiwan，秉持藝術與社會長期連結的信念，探索在地與國際層面的合作可能。

兩位負責人暨執行長長期活躍於英國藝術、文化與教育場域，擁有豐富的跨領域實踐經驗，使 SUP Taiwan 在策略上具備開放性與前瞻性，並能因地制宜調整實踐方式。

SUP 的核心理念認為藝術深植於公共生活與社會結構之中，並在教育體制、職場環境、地方機構與草根社群之間架起連結。我們於台灣的行動也正體現此理念─將國際經驗轉化為在地合作模型，並進一步擴展文化交流的深度與廣度。

在為期三個月的「NCUE x SUP 2025 臺英藝術家駐校與交流計畫」駐校期間，SUP 團隊積極於彰化、台北、台中與台南拓展藝術網絡，與畫廊、藝術機構、自營團體建立交流與合作，提供藝術家與學生突破教室與工作室的創作空間。

Danny Young

SUP Taiwan Inaugural Resident Artist | NCUE x SUP 2025
Danny Young’s sculptural and installation practice addresses themes of social class, identity, and underrepresented visual cultures. Rooted in his Welsh working-class background, Danny’s work provides a thought-provoking contrast to Changhua’s cultural traditions. Throughout his residency, Danny has been critically examining the relationships between cultural and social environments and structures through his experimental approach to sculpture; combining traditional craftsmanship with digital sculpting technologies. Danny's non-stop engagement has led to many fruitful exchanges of skills, ideas, and techniques as well as developing his knowledge of Taiwan's unique sculpting materials and processes
Danny Young | SUP Taiwan 首屆駐校藝術家 NCUE x SUP 2025
Danny 的雕塑與裝置藝術聚焦於社會階級、身份認同與被忽略的視覺文化。他的創作深受威爾斯工人階級背景影響，並與彰化文化形成耐人尋味的對比。在國立彰化師範大學的駐校期間，他透過結合傳統工藝與數位雕刻的實驗性雕塑手法，批判性地探討文化社會環境與結構之間的關係。Danny 不間斷的投入，促成了許多技術、想法與手法的豐碩交流，也深化了他對台灣在地的雕塑材料與工藝流程的了解。
Margarita Frančeska Loze

SUP Taiwan Inaugural Resident Artist | NCUE x SUP 2025
Margarita’s work is a celebration of the poetics of the ordinary and her research focuses on experimental phenomenology, Lunar Phases and various forms of memory such as déjà vu and nostalgia. During the SUP residency at NCUE Margarita began looking into the phenomenological meanings of ‘roots,’ exploring their complexity and symbolic significance. Inspired by the region's natural landscape and its flower-growing industry, her work has taken inspiration from local traditions and seasonal rhythms. She has also explored the cultural significance of Taiwan's many temples, and her practice developed to incorporate the ornamental symbolism of mythical creatures into her embroidery work.
Margarita Frančeska Loze | SUP Taiwan 首屆駐校藝術家 NCUE x SUP 2025
Margarita 的作品致力於歌頌日常詩意，她的研究聚焦於實驗性現象學、月相與各種記憶形式，如既視感與懷舊之情。在國立彰化師範大學的駐校期間，她開始探索「根」的現象學意涵，挖掘其複雜性與象徵意義。受到彰化當地自然風貌與花卉產業的啟發，她的創作從在地傳統習俗與季節韻律中汲取靈感。她進一步探索台灣各地廟宇的文化意涵，將神話生物的裝飾意象融入刺繡創作之中。

Austin Chen

NCUE FINE ART STUDENT, NCUE x SUP 2025 Intern
Austin (Yu-Han) Chen is currently a third-year Fine Art student and has served as an intern at the Fine Arts Office since 2022. As part of the NCUExSUP 2025 team, Austin plays a vital role in supporting workshop preparation, equipment sourcing, event and workshop translation, coordination, and acting as a key point of contact between students and the project team.
Austin’s artistic practice spans ceramics, video, sound, and found objects, with a focus on exploring the intrinsic qualities of materials. Through installation-based works, he reflects on memories and the complexities of human relationships, investigating vulnerability and interpersonal connections.
Central to his practice is the belief that every material and object possesses its own voice. Austin’s work seeks to minimise external distractions, allowing the inner “voice” and history of each material to emerge clearly. By carefully translating the essence of these materials and found objects, he brings their deeper meanings to the forefront, creating installations that are both intimate and resonant.

在個人創作上，陳昱翰的創作涵蓋陶瓷、影像、聲音與現成物，並以裝置藝術形式探索材料本身的特質與聲音。他的作品常從個人記憶出發，反思人際關係中的脆弱與連結，藉由空間與物件對話，呈現細膩且感性的敘事。
陳昱翰相信每一件材料與物件都蘊含自身的「聲音」，他致力於減少外在干擾，讓材料與物件內在的歷史與意義能夠被清晰地呈現。透過這樣的「翻譯」過程，他試圖讓每一個物件的聲音走向前台，成為作品的核心，傳達深層的人文情感與思考。
