“Glowing Flow” is inspired by Keelung. It reflects the feature of Keelung, a mountainous seaside city. It looks like the undulating mountain hills, curving sea waves, as well as moving school of fishes with their scales shinning. When the sun shines through the patio, iridescent pieces are lighted up, it reveals all spectrums of colors otherwise hidden. Keelung Station is a transport hub for people traveling by bus, train, or cruise ship. In this context, “Glowing Flow” infuses the space of the station with a sense of flow and movement and this accompanies the endless coming and going of passengers as they pursue a better future.
