Taiwan Ant Quilt Society was established on April 15th, 2007. It is a nationwide non-profit group that aims to promote quilt art, to serve communities, quilters and quilt-lovers with profession and voluntary spirits. In addition, all TAQS members strive to promote Taiwan textile art as well as international cultural exchanges. Establishing a Quilt Art Museum, collecting masterpieces, doing researches, publishing quilt art books, and facilitating women’s participation in community cultural industries are our long-term missions.
Our society is made up of quilt artists or enthusiasts who love quilt. With the spirit of ants, all “ant” members act in team works. Ants persist on doing “right” things only and insist on not wasting any resources. Sharing with each other, disseminating art seeds and developing TAQS as a whole are also what we devoted to.
以「螞蟻」命名的緣由 The origin of the “Ant” naming:
學習拼布的人,從學會拿針縫接開始,進行一連串有次序的拼布創作。據說螞蟻最早出現於白堊紀中期,距今約8000萬年。以螞蟻作為團體的代表意象,象徵著拼布藝術悠久的歷史。螞蟻們是守秩序、團隊合作的動物;他們出外覓食都是結伴同行,絕不單獨行動;守本分盡責、不製造紛亂。此外,螞蟻跨一步的距離剛好跟標準的手縫針距一樣。而他們微小的身軀提醒著每個拼布人要縮小自我,不膨脹自己所能。
Quilt beginners start a series of art creation with learning how to use thread and needle. Ants are believed to have been in existence in Mid-Cretaceous Period, about 800 millions years ago. We took “Ant” as our token to represent the long-standing history of quilt art. Ants are organized and cooperative. They go out to seek food in groups, never in solitary. Ants always know their place and do not cause chaos. In addition, the distance of an ant’s single step is the same as the standard stitch interval.
