傳統木工藝在台灣早期常民文化中，一直是民間生活不可或缺的一項工藝，透過匠師技藝的施作，結合材料的運用，製作出符合人們生活所需及對於美的訴求之生活用品，其中包含了食、衣、住、行及民俗器具。然而木工藝之技藝，則是經由匠師們世世代代的經驗傳承，從當學徒時一點一滴的學習磨練，再將其所累積的成果，毫無保留的展現於作品中，因此傳統木工藝所呈現的不僅是常民生活對於美的寫照，更包含了隨著時間淬鍊的鄉土人文精神。

此次展覽是由四位於傳統木工藝之習藝者莊博揚、羅又睿、張書瑋、林岱儀，從來自不同學習背景，以及不同的習藝過程如羅又睿為國家重要傳統藝術傳統木雕保存者施鎮洋之藝生，張書瑋則是華梵大學木工營講師，而莊博揚及林岱儀是大學時期於臺藝大古蹟藝術修護系學習傳統木雕，還有各自不同在工藝學習上的心路歷程，將一同結合於臺北藝術大學【未來‧傳統實驗基地】進行展出，透過學習傳統木工藝之經驗、身體知識的實踐、進行現場傳統木工藝的施作及互動性的展示設計，包含從工具展示體驗、圖稿繪製體驗、雕刻技法解說，循序漸進地讓觀者透過實際體驗操作了解木工藝的製作工序及工法，呈現出傳統木工藝正在進行的過程，並且藉由此空間場域，經由現場施作一刀一刻及觀展者間的互動交流，傳達出內心所追尋傳承傳統藝術之精神，並期盼能讓大家一起感受傳統木工藝之美，了解傳統木工藝的精神內涵。

To the ordinary people of the early Taiwanese culture, wood craft was an integral part of life. Through the skills of craftsmen and local materials, the craftsmen made products for every aspects of daily life including the need of diet, clothing, accommodation, transportation and folk beliefs. Moreover, traditional wood craft is passed down from generation to generation of craftsmen. When a craft master was an apprentice, he learnt to manage the craft from every little job assigned by his master and gradually grew to be a master himself. Hence, a piece of wooden work is not only an emblem of vernacular beauty, but also a materialization of the wisdom and experience of generations of craftsmen.

“The Spirit of Craft in Wood” is a joint exhibition of four apprentices of traditional wood crafts: Bo-Yang Zhuang (莊博揚), You-Rui Luo (羅又睿), Shu-Wei Zhang (張書瑋) and Dai-Yi Lin (林岱儀) , who have immersed themselves in learning wood carving skills. Taking place in this experimental space for traditional arts, this exhibition showcases a real-time interactive demonstration of wood carving in order to display the process of creating these stunning works. Hopefully, the beauty of traditional wood crafts and the spirits of craftsmanship shall be manifested and then experienced.
