CHENG Kuang-pai 乘光白
Taiwanese 1962
Born in Taipei, she is a graduate of the Fu-Hsin Trade and Arts School. In 1982, she went to study overseas in Japan at the Musashino Art University. In 1986, she practiced art at the David Wilson Arts Studio. Between 1982~1993 she toured countries in Europe and Central Asia, participating in short-term art workshops before finally settling back in Taiwan in 1993. Her artwork has always been known for its fusion of sparkling glass with ironwork to express the beauty of light. Through the study of theology, philosophy, religion and participation in spiritual programs, she has gradually come to realize the sacred power of light on the inspiration of spirituality. This epiphany led to Cheng Kuang-pai deciding to use light as a creative medium. The love she holds within her heart means that a child's smile, the hands of an old man, sunlight after the rain and the water droplets on a leaf all give off their own unique radiance in her eyes. She converts these into creative elements, letting her passion and creativity issue forth like an eternal flame.
