In a world where the spotlight often shines on Western contemporary art and its historical narratives, it's important to remember that Asia is home to approximately 60% of the global population. With this in mind, the purpose of hosting this podcast is to present alternative worldviews and foster a deeper appreciation for the richness and diversity of art across Asia. Every weekend a new episode is released, bringing new perspectives and engaging dialogues with emerging and established artists, curators, gallerists and collectors in Asia.

Ep.93 | Artist Lo Yi-Chun on the history of economic crops in the context of global trade, "Carbohydrate Fueling Cycle I, II, III", “The Diver”, and neolithic artefacts in Kaohsiung.

Taiwanese-based artist Lo Yi-Chun talked about her captivating projects including "Carbohydrate Fueling Cycle I, II, III", an exploration of the history of economic crops within the global trade context. We also delve into "The Diver," a piece that she created for the Green Island Human Rights Art Festival and capoeira. Lastly, we re-experience Neolithic artefacts in Kaohsiung, delving into the rich historical significance they hold.

Lo Yi-Chun (b. 1985, Taipei) uses natural media such as banana peels, tobacco, and bagasse to create a wide range of objects and spatial installations that reflect on the history of economic crops in the context of global trade. In addition to exploring the relationship between agriculture and politics, her work also addresses the movement of people and commodities in the globalized world.
