Walking Grass Agriculture 

“ flourish a state through agriculture，intervene art through agriculture”  is the method and objective of walking grass studio. Our members have a family background in agriculture and a profound passion for art. We use the term agriculture not just for its technical implications, instead we explore the possibilities of art via the values we have inherited from our families. Agriculture is a balance between nature and culture, not unlike art, it responses to seasons; the heavens and the earth underneath it; time and space; the rhythm of life. All of these are phenomenons art can act upon.
