Hsinchu printmaker wins prize for Year of the Tiger print

A block-printed tiger by Tseng Hsueh-mei (曾雪梅) has won the Hsinchu County artist an excellence award and the piece is to be displayed at the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts.
Tseng’s image features a “cute tiger” clinging to the trunk of a plum tree.
She said yesterday that the image symbolizes the hope that the COVID-19 pandemic will pass, allowing Taiwanese industries to thrive once more.
Magpies sitting on the tree’s branches and surrounding the tiger are chirping a happy song to bring to mind the Chinese idiom “xi shang mei shao” (喜上眉梢), meaning to be visibly overjoyed, she said.
