About Pride Of The City Offentlig Konst

Pride of the City är den offentliga konsten i Maple Garden, den urbana oasen och en ekologisk park i Taichung City. Detta verk uttrycker bilden av fyra fåglar som flyger uppåt och presenterar flera bilder som liknar träd, blommor och fåglar från olika vinklar för att visa cykeln av fyra årstider och den harmoniska samexistensen av allt levande. Denna offentliga skulptur leder besökarna att närma sig naturen och lysa upp nätterna i Maple Garden.
