The workshop focuses on the Immaterial Cultural Heritage, things that are intangible, such as the daily life of the factory workers, stories of local culture, and things that have already disappeared. By making the invisible visible, the artwork aims to arouse people’s awareness of the rich cultural landscape. By connecting the past and the present, it highlights the importance of immaterial values, on which culture itself is based.

During the workshop, the participant had the chance to create a 360° drawing together, by using archive pictures of Madou. After the creation, the picture was loaded into the Virtual Reality surface, and become visible as a horizontal landscape, which recalls the rich history of Taiwan’s sugar industry.

本次的工作坊聚焦於無形文化資產，如工廠工作者的日常生活、關於當地文化的故事、以及那些已經消逝的事物等。透過將無形化為有形，企圖喚起人們對豐富文化地景的關注，藉由連結過去與現在，也強調出非物質之價值的重要性，而這也是文化立足根基所在。

藝術家將引導參與者重繪麻豆史料照片,並以虛擬方式重現臺灣製糖時期的榮景。

托馬斯．史維特(匈牙利, 1982) 為視覺藝術家，熱衷探索感知、記憶、以及不可見領域。2018年，其以文科博士（DLA）學位，畢業於布達佩斯的匈牙利藝術大學。史維特的藝術研究著重在拓展人類視野的可能性，針對我們看事物的方式，他提出質疑並勾勒出不可見之面相，例如：非物質的文化遺產，他以現地創作的模式，創造出不同感知間的互動。其聚焦地域及社區的聯結性，進而介紹出不同的文化，並將其與重要的當代議題並列。
