    • Abstract:
      An interview with Ed Pien, a contemporary artist is presented. When asked about what was life like in Taiwan, he refers in disliking it because of the marshal law and added that he felt paranoia and oppressed due to the propagandas. Pien believes that drawing have limitations and a lot of the limitations are set up by the art world. He comments on the aspects of strong influence of Jonathan Borofsky's work on him such as Borofsky's sense of physical and the scale of what he was doing.
