Description of Our Community: Our community, Wen-Long, being located at Taipei County in Taiwan .Wen-Long was an excellent graveyard filled with the spiritual influence that could bless the posterity of resident to create a new ruler. But in Manchu dynasty, Emperor Guangxu built the railroad to destroy the spiritual influence and divided Wen-Long into three administrative areas. From now on, Wen-Long became a area that nobody wanted to be responsible for. There is factory everywhere at Wen-Long, eighty percent of the resident is out -comer .Not knowing the history of this area, they do not work hard to safeguard and cherish the environment. Therefore, Wen-Long has lost his elegant appearance at present. But a lot of the resident still fell hopeful about the future of our community; they are pleasure to devoting himself to make the area beautiful and glory again!
Project Description: We visited nine Mouth & Foot Painting Artists(MFPA) who lived at Taipei County City,ROC. After losing their hands,they learned to draw and paint with the brush held in the mouth or with the toes. Being disabled is not their symbol,they live a more optimistic and bright life than others. We would tell you their moving stories about how to overcome all obstacles and look the sunny side of the world.
