Eleng Luluan
Eleng Luluan is a Rukai artist highly regarded for her ambitious, architectural-scale installations that comment on the culture and resilience of her indigenous Taiwanese community. Her installations combine delicate weaving techniques with a dynamic spatial sensibility, utilising waste materials in new and surprising ways. For Luluan, the principles of wabacabacas — where the movement of the hand embodies thoughts, beliefs, history and culture — and the practice of interweaving voices from her community are central to building cultural resilience to sustain the community into an uncertain future.
