The biennial Taipei Biennale has opened grandly at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum.<\/strong><\/p>

The biennial Taipei Biennial<\/strong> has officially opened at the Taipei Fine Arts Museum\u2014
a grand gathering where more than 75 international artists and over 150 works<\/strong> come together, filling the city\u2019s autumn and winter with a gentle yet unmistakable artistic atmosphere.<\/p>

Art has never existed only within the walls of a gallery\u2014
it flows into the seams of daily life, settling into what we eat, wear, dwell in, and move through, becoming the details that shape everyday experience.
And this year, a quiet dialogue between taste and art<\/strong> begins here: TOMU \u00d7 Wild Open Space<\/strong>.<\/p>

\u2727 Enter a space where breathing begins anew<\/strong><\/h3>

Winter light glides across the glass fa\u00e7ade of the museum, softening the city\u2019s pace.
<\/p>

\"\"<\/figure>

Follow the wooden steps down to the basement level, and you will find Wild Open Space (WOS)<\/strong>\u2014
a place where the mind settles, senses recalibrate, and inspiration breathes freely.<\/p>

In the context of this year\u2019s Biennial, WOS invites TOMU<\/strong> to collaborate, allowing the space to not only respond to the exhibition’s theme, but also welcome a scent that feels both new and deeply familiar.<\/p>

Rooted in Taiwanese millet and written through brewing,
the light effervescence of millet sparkling wine and the gentle warmth of millet sake become a form of fluid art in the glass.
Between artworks and shifting light, another aesthetic is quietly awakened\u2014a vocabulary of art shaped through flavor.<\/p>

\u2727 TOMU: Flavor as the thread of emotion<\/strong><\/p>

Founded in 2022, TOMU <\/strong>centers itself on the philosophy:
\u201cTaiwanese flavor \u00d7 traditional blessings \u00d7 contemporary sensibility.\u201d<\/strong>
Using millet to ferment the memories of the land, it carries blessings through the language of taste.<\/p>

From grains sprouting, fermentation taking shape, to aromas unfolding\u2014
every step is a creation completed jointly by time and nature<\/strong>.<\/p>

  • Packaging awarded Gold at the International Design Awards (UK)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n
  • Product line includes millet sake, millet sparkling wine, and fruit\u2013tea expressions such as ponkan citrus and red oolong<\/li>\n\n
  • Each bottle reinterprets Taiwan\u2019s cultural warmth and sensory language through flavor<\/li><\/ul>
    \"\"<\/figure>

    TOMU believes:
    \u201cA good bottle does not stop at taste\u2014it is memory, emotion, and the shape of a blessing.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>

    And this time marks the brand\u2019s first formal entry into a contemporary art setting\u2014
    a journey from land to city, from dining table to exhibition hall\u2014responding to art through flavor,
    answering its questions through the act of tasting.<\/p>

    \u2727 Taipei Biennial: A Whisper as the Beginning of Reconnection<\/strong><\/h3>

    The 14th Taipei Biennial, \u201cWhispers Along the Horizon,\u201d<\/strong> invites visitors to reflect:
    \u201cIn times of turbulence and uncertainty, how do we continue to believe in connection?\u201d<\/strong><\/p>

    Within this context, WOS\u2014where TOMU is featured\u2014becomes a place to:<\/strong><\/p>

    pause,
    unwind,
    and let emotions quietly surface.<\/p>

    When the exhibition asks you to listen for the inner whisper,
    TOMU uses flavor to let those emotions find an echo on the tongue.<\/p>

    \u2727 Bottling Blessings: Millet Sparkling Wine 5-Bottle Gift Set<\/strong><\/h3>

    To accompany its presence at the Biennial, TOMU unveils a limited selection:<\/p>

    \"\"<\/figure>

    \u201cMillet Sparkling Wine \u2013 Five-Bottle Gift Set\u201d<\/strong>
    Flavors include: Original \/ Green Plum \/ Peach \/ Yuzu \/ Ponkan<\/strong><\/p>

    Each bottle is an unopened letter of blessings\u2014
    bubbles as a moment of blossoming,
    fruit aroma as a quiet new beginning.<\/strong><\/p>

    A Millet Sake Gift Box<\/strong> is also available,
    a pure-brewed tribute to land, time, and craftsmanship.<\/p>

    \u201cWe ferment blessings into each bottle, gifting them to everyone walking their own path.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>

    \u2727 WOS: A Place for Buffering, Exchange, and Feeling<\/strong><\/p>

    WOS is not a caf\u00e9. It is:<\/p>

    a holding space for inspiration,
    a buffer zone for thought,
    a spiritual relay point within the city.<\/p>

    Through:<\/p>

    • pop-up dining programs<\/li>\n\n
    • curated tastings and music selections<\/li>\n\n
    • cultural talks and creator dialogues<\/li><\/ul>
      \"\"<\/figure>

      Here, drinking isn\u2019t merely \u201chaving a glass\u201d\u2014it is participating in a cultural exchange<\/strong>.<\/p>

      \u2727 The Cross-disciplinary Whisper of Flavor and Art<\/strong><\/h3>

      The resonance between TOMU and WOS<\/strong> is more than a brand collaboration;
      it is a cross-disciplinary creation where flavor becomes language<\/strong> and terroir becomes context<\/strong>.<\/p>

      A single sip holds\u2014<\/p>

      the memory of the land,
      the breath of the city,
      and a toast to everyday life.<\/p>

      \"\"<\/figure>

      Let flavor become the next line of poetry<\/strong> in art.<\/p>
