PAPERSKY에서는3회의의 특집이 되는 「대만」, 그리고2019올해의 오레곤 특집 이후의 해외 특집입니다. 이번 주목한 것은 대만의 「차 문화」. 차 자체와 차의 시간은 사람들을 연결하는 신비한 힘이 있습니다. 거기에는 대화가 태어나, 아이디어를 공유하고, 기분 좋고 질 높은 시간을 보낼 수 있고, 자신의 내면과의 커뮤니케이션에도 좋은 영향을 가져오는 것입니다. 대만에는 옛날부터 공원에서 차를 마시는 문화가 있습니다. 그 신구의 차의 문화를 소개하는 것과 동시에, 등장 받는 것은 서예를 베이스로 했다8사람의 대만인 아티스트입니다. 또, 여행의 게스트는 전통적인 서를 현대적인 표현으로 추구하는, 신죠 다이지로씨를 일본에서 맞이해, 차와 서예의 새로운 영역을 개척하는 사람들과 함께 “Tea in the Park그 시간이 아직 몰랐던 대만을 보여줄 것입니다.

Taiwan Love & Tea
Taiwan has always been a second home and a place I love dearly for its heartful people, rich and diversified culture, stunning nature and of course it's awesome gastronomic culture. This is Papersky's third Taiwan issue! The fir Cooking' (2015). The next spotlighted outdoor brand, Yamatomichi's, Akira Natsume as we hiked & biked our hearts out while exploring the islands dynamic outdoor field with a 'Hike & Bike' trip (2019 in the Park' and our guest is young artist-calligrapher Daichiro Shinjo. Join us for a walk around Taipei as we sip tea under Banyan, Cypress and Rain Trees in the city's local parks while enjoying conversations with Taiwanese artists. But to share a true story as to how this issue came to light.
While working on a Papersky Store pop up shop in Taipei I had the good fortune to catch a bit of Corona. I know most people would be bummed out or even terrified to catch Corona in a home away from home. But in Taiwan my friends as well as the Taiwanese government took great care of me. My hospital, hotel and food expenses were covered, and I was fortunate to be able to stay an extra five days in a country I love. The slow time, kind care and great Taiwanese food gave me time to think about what made Taiwan such a special place. I came up with these key words: PARKS, ART & CALIGRAPHY and TEA.
Then with my Corona down time I began to think through how I may be able to put these Key Words together to create a Papersky feature story. The answer came to me while looking out the window of my room. I saw in the park a stunningly beautiful Banyan trees. I thought to myself, with a remaining three more days of isolation, what I would like to do once I left my room. I imagined myself taking a trip to a local Tea Stand and with tea and some black Taiwanese pea hand heading to the park and sitting on a bench. I continued to daydream – and thought who I would like to have sit next to me on the bench. I wanted to ask my imaginary friend about the current state of Taiwan, Tea, Plants, Art and the Future. I thought if the person was an artist, they would be able to shed some light on these topics that to me were so TAIWANESE. And thus our 'Tea in the Park' edition was born, and a daydream once again brought to life.
