Daughter of Nectar (2026)

Carved from marble in 1921, *Daughter of Nectar* is a luminous nude by Huang Tu-shui—Taiwan’s first modern sculptor. This elegant yet resilient figure holds the weight of a turbulent century: from Japanese colonization through Chiang Kai-shek’s iron-fisted regime and the shadow of White Terror. Like a silent guardian, the sculpture reflects Taiwan’s unyielding spirit, its muted cries, and the deep cultural shifts that shaped its identity.
