Traditional Cultural Skills in Disappearance

  • Photographer
    Chin-Fa Tzeng, Taiwan

After a country, Taiwan has developed into technology and industry. Some agricultural cultures and the traditional skill industries are disappearing ruthlessly and quickly. Such as face-lifting beauty, household sewing, hand weaving, cooking kueh, wrapping zongzi to hand-stitching clothes... etc.
I think nostalgia for things in old age will also make people's lives more emotional and human.
In this series, I especially apple the wet version of photography which is also disappearing to present memorable times to recall old times.
