Taiwanese Performance Art Series - Bu Ma Zhen: Wishing Prosperity and Advancement

The "Bu Ma Zhen" (Cloth Horse Formation): A distinctive performance art from Taiwanese folk traditions, evolving from the ancient "Bamboo Horse" plays.

Their agile, amusing, and exaggerated movements symbolize academic success and good fortune. **Performance Art (Yi Zhen): A unique folk culture inherent to Taiwanese temple processions and festivals. "Yi Zhen" is a combined term for "Yi Ge" (art stages) and "Zhen Tou" (formations), referring to folk troupes that incorporate artistic performances. Their purpose is to celebrate deities and bestow blessings upon the people.
