Shocking! Shocking! Shocking! Extremely shocking!!! What happened in Chiayi? What on earth is going on at Zhuluo Mountain??? What kind of art (consciousness) is Fengshan Yunshui up to? An extraordinary art event? The monk from afar—Chen Chi-Hsiang—and the local monk—Yang Chiu-hsiang—together "mess around" with art! Out of ideas! Suddenly, forgotten: what IS art!? Oh my!
