Artist | Aluaiy Kaumakan（Daughter of the Sun Cultural Creative Studio）
Coming from a Paiwan tribe in southern Taiwan, Aluaiy Kaumakan creates sculptures with wool, cotton, copper, silk, and glass beads, weaving organic or vegetal forms. She uses 'Lemikalik'—a Paiwan technique that consists in weaving in concentric circles—intertwining life memories of tribal nobility to form a place for constant conversation and connection. Her practice is inspired by her tradition and at the same time is not 'frozen' in the past, as it responds to current issues she and her tribe face today.
