Taiwan Craft Home - Shih Chien-Yang Huatai Sculpture Art Center Introduction
Shi Chenyang was born in 1946 in Lugang. His father, Shi Kunyü (1919-), is a traditional large woodwork craftsman, originally from Quanzhou, Fujian. Shi Chenyang's interest in wood carving was cultivated by his father, and during his childhood, he often accompanied his father to various temples for work, gradually developing a passion for wood carving. Around the age of 18 (1963), he began working in woodcraft in earnest, with several projects still contracted by his father, who would design while Shi Chenyang was responsible for the actual work until he took on all projects independently at the age of 34 (1979).
