In this exhibition Mythical Roots, Tapaya ventures as a bard, part Carlos Francisco, part Brenda Fajardo, that remembers and recounts the myths of creation: the great flood, the first woman, the primordial fire, the genesis of the banana plant, and other foundational fictions of the universe. And what makes Tapaya's work important and valuable is a certain flair in speaking to a folk aesthetic, which is not to be mistaken for a forced provincial, vernacular style. It might be part of his own humble sensibility, a particular homespun attitude toward the everyday life of his milieu as can be gleaned in a previous series.

The exhibition, which has been planned since 2008, features 57 works by 18 artists, presenting their observations, reflections and interpretations of The Times they live in."Allosymbiosis" is the main theme of the exhibition, and the three themes of "allosymbiosis" in Beijing, "Excessive love" in Taipei and "Model Country" in Tainan are held in three places, in an attempt to make a historical review and introduction of Japanese contemporary art.
