Daxi Wood Art Eco Museum - Artisan Hall Introduction

The "Yishi Hall" was built during the Japanese colonial period in the year Showa 16 (1941) as a residence for the police department of Daxi District. After the Nationalist government relocated to Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek established a villa here, which was later occupied by the family of Mr. Yu Jichang and has been vacant for many years since their departure. Daxi was once a significant center for the woodcraft industry, producing exquisite wood artifacts that incorporated intricate joinery, inlays, carvings, ink painting, and lacquer techniques. This masterful craftsmanship stems from the spirit of dedicated artisans and the ethical and procedural codes established through the master-apprentice relationship—reflecting Daxi woodwork's motto of "crafting art, cultivating character." In order to restore the glory of artisanship, the Woodcraft Museum has planned the residence as "Yishi Hall," which not only showcases Daxi woodcraft products and wooden artifacts but also emphasizes the underlying spirit and ethics. It aims to facilitate a dialogue between people, materials, and tools, thereby connecting the artisans' "creation" with the users' "application," leading to an emotional resonance of "use and beauty." It is hoped that "Yishi Hall" serves as a base for the transmission of the artisan spirit, allowing the public to not only appreciate the beauty of wooden crafts but also understand the developmental context of artisan lineage, and to truly appreciate the spirit of craftsmanship behind the woodwork.
