🎨【科技與藝術的跨界激盪：台灣藝術家蘇文琪出席「歐洲核子研究組織」 (CERN)的年度影展-CineGlobe-活動】✨

科學與藝術的碰撞，能激發出什麼樣的火花？

駐日內瓦辦事處李冠德處長於 6 月 6 日下午受邀出席由「歐洲核子研究組織」 (CERN)年度影展 - CineGlobe - 舉辦的「與藝術家對話」（artist discussion）及獲獎影片頒獎典禮。今年影展特別選出6部虛擬實境作品展出，主辦單位CineGlobe還特別邀請到來自台灣、同時也是精彩作品《Sensing Dark Matter》（暗宇之感）的創作者蘇文琪老師，以及VR作品《海市蜃樓》（Mirage）的創作者Naima Karim專程來到日內瓦展出作品，並與現場觀眾感性分享她們的創作靈感泉源。

蘇文琪提到，這段奇妙的旅程始於 2016 年。當時她來到 CERN（歐洲核子研究組織）擔任駐村藝術家，首次與頂尖物理學家就神祕的「暗物質」（Dark Matter）交換觀點。物理學家眼中抽象的宇宙原理，成為了她創作的養分，進而孕育出這部結合身體感官與科技的 VR 跨界作品。她也大方分享如何將物理學觀點，透過藝術肢體與舞蹈編排具象化呈現，將理性科學轉化為感性藝術的創新做法，贏得現場聽眾極為熱烈的迴響與共鳴。

李處長於致詞時表示，台灣與 CERN 長期以來維持良好的合作夥伴關係，常有優秀的台灣科學家在 CERN 進行駐點研究，與全球頂尖學者共同探索宇宙的奧祕。這次非常榮幸能與 CERN 攜手合作，共同支持今年的 CineGlobe 影展，期盼未來能持續深化台灣與CERN交流。

此外，李處長也分享了一則好消息：由 CERN 倡議發起的雙年度「亞歐太平洋高能物理學校」（AEPSHEP）課程，今年 10 月 14 日至 27 日將首度移師台灣舉辦！

對話活動後，李處長在CERN藝術計畫(Arts at CERN)總監Giulia Bencini陪同下，參觀CERN的藝廊作品；同日晚間也應邀出席2026年CineGlobe影展獲獎作品的頒獎典禮，促進台灣與CERN之間的藝術交流。



On the afternoon of June 6, Director General Ambassador Greg Lee of the Taipei Cultural and Economic Delegation in Geneva was invited to attend the "Artist Discussion" event hosted by CineGlobe. The event featured a special guest from Taiwan—Su Wen-chi, the brilliant creator behind the featured artwork Sensing Dark Matter. Su traveled to Geneva specifically to share the profound inspiration behind her creation with the audience.

Su Wen-chi shared that this incredible journey began in 2016 when she came to CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research) as an artist-in-residence. It was then that she first exchanged perspectives with top physicists on the mysterious concept of "Dark Matter." The abstract cosmic principles in the eyes of physicists became the nourishment for her creativity, ultimately giving birth to this cross-disciplinary VR masterpiece that fuses physical sensation with technology. She also shared how she conceptualized complex physics viewpoints and materialized them through artistic movement and choreography. Her innovative approach of transforming rational science into emotional art received an enthusiastic response and resonated deeply with the audience.

In his remarks, Ambassador Lee noted that the cooperation between Taiwan and CERN has a long and well-established history, with outstanding Taiwanese scientists conducting research at CERN over the years to explore the mysteries of the universe alongside world-class scholars.

Furthermore, Ambassador Lee shared an exciting announcement: the biennial "Asia-Europe-Pacific School of High-Energy Physics" (AEPSHEP) program, initiated by CERN, will be hosted in Taiwan for the first very time from October 14 to 27 this year, marking a significant milestone for Taiwan’s scientific research community. Ambassador Lee emphasized that the Delegation is deeply honored to partner with CERN in supporting this year's CineGlobe events. He expressed high hopes for continuing to deepen exchanges between Taiwan and CERN.

Following the discussion event, accompanied by Giulia Bencini, Head of Arts at CERN, Ambassador Lee toured the artwork exhibits at the CERN gallery. Later that evening, he was also invited to attend the award ceremony for the winning films of the 2026 CineGlobe Festival, further promoting artistic and cultural exchanges between Taiwan and CERN.

While physicists search for the invisible "dark matter" in the universe, a Taiwanese artist is using the human body and technology to help us "feel" it.
This Saturday and Sunday, Sensing Dark Matter, an extraordinary immersive VR experience created by renowned Taiwanese choreographer and new media artist Su Wen-Chi and her troupe YiLab., will be showcased at CERN's CineGlobe!
Inspired by her art residency at CERN, Su Wen-Chi beautifully translates profound concepts of quantum physics and astronomy into a sensory-defying virtual reality journey. This is not just a visual exhibition—it is an exploration into the unknown frontiers of the universe.
Even better, there will be an exclusive Artist Talk this Saturday afternoon. Su Wen-Chi will share her creative process and discuss how she bridges the gap between scientific inquiry and artistic expression. It’s a rare opportunity you won’t want to miss!

🇹🇼 首度在世界衛生大會（WHA）期間於日內瓦舉辦的「Taiwan Smart Medical & HealthTech Expo 台灣智慧醫療與健康產業展」圓滿落幕！🌍✨

今年台灣以「WHO Cares? TAIWAN Cares!」及「Chip in With Taiwan」為主軸，向國際社會展現台灣結合AI、半導體與醫療科技的創新實力，以及在全球健康韌性中的關鍵角色。

本次展覽集結超過30家台灣頂尖醫療院所與企業，共同呈現「智慧醫療」、「創新照護」及「韌性健康」三大主題。包括馬偕醫院、臺北榮總、臺大醫院等9家醫療機構，現場展示AI輔助診斷、智慧照護、精準醫療及醫院數位轉型等創新應用，吸引各國代表團與國際醫衛人士高度關注。

外交部長林佳龍與衛福部長石崇良也親自走訪展區，與國際友人交流。多位國際重量級醫衛領袖及組織代表皆到場支持，對台灣以創新方式爭取國際參與表達高度肯定。

開幕式期間另一亮點，是國合會與馬爾他國際（Malteser International）簽署「烏克蘭截肢者復健及心理社會支持計畫」合作意向書。台灣與馬爾他騎士團攜手協助烏克蘭戰爭受害者，提供復健醫療、心理支持及專業醫護培訓，展現台灣不僅擁有智慧醫療軟實力，更持續以實際行動投入全球人道援助。

從智慧醫療到國際合作，從科技創新到人道關懷，台灣正持續向世界證明：
Who cares? Taiwan cares.
Taiwan Can Help — and Taiwan is Helping.



🇹🇼 The first-ever “Taiwan Smart Medical & HealthTech Expo” held during the World Health Assembly (WHA) in Geneva has successfully concluded! 🌍✨

Under the themes “WHO Cares? TAIWAN Cares!” and “Chip in With Taiwan,” Taiwan showcased its innovative strengths in AI, semiconductors, and medical technology, highlighting its vital role in strengthening global health resilience.

The expo brought together more than 30 leading Taiwanese medical institutions and companies under the themes of Smart Healthcare, Innovative Care, and Health Resilience. 9 major hospitals, including MacKay Memorial Hospital, Taipei Veterans General Hospital, and National Taiwan University Hospital, demonstrated cutting-edge applications in AI-assisted diagnosis, smart healthcare, precision medicine, and hospital digital transformation.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Lin Chia-lung and Minister of Health and Welfare Shih Chung-liang also visited the exhibition and engaged with international guests. Global health leaders and representatives from international organizations expressed strong support for Taiwan’s innovative efforts to participate in the international community.

Another major highlight was the signing of a Letter of Intent between TaiwanICDF and Malteser International on the “Ukraine Amputee Rehabilitation and Psychosocial Support Project.” Through cooperation with the Order of Malta, Taiwan will help provide rehabilitation services, psychological support, and professional medical training for victims of the war in Ukraine.

From smart healthcare to international cooperation, from technological innovation to humanitarian care, Taiwan continues to show the world:

【外交部嚴正譴責中國以政治與經濟手段施壓他國改變其主權決定，取消我國專機飛越許可，及駁斥貶損我國主權之謬論！】

賴清德總統原訂於4月22日應我非洲友邦史瓦帝尼王國國王恩史瓦帝三世（H.M. King Mswati III）邀請率團前往訪問，由於專機飛越許可遭塞席爾（Seychelles）、模里西斯（Mauritius）、馬達加斯加（Madagascar）三國無預警臨時撤回，致使行程未能順利成行。

外交部嚴正譴責中國將飛航情報區政治化、武器化，干預他國改變主權決定和影響國際民航正常運作；同時對於塞席爾及馬達加斯加扈從中國扭曲言論，挑戰國際慣例與飛航安全提出嚴正抗議；此外鄭重呼籲國際社會正視中國屢屢以政治及經濟脅迫他國，公然干涉他國內政，此種行徑不僅針對台灣，也嚴重影響與挑戰全球民主秩序與國際法治。

外交部再次重申，中華民國台灣是主權獨立的民主國家，與中華人民共和國互不隸屬，有權走向世界，任何國家都無法加以阻撓。任何意圖詆毀台灣主權地位的言論，都無法改變國際公認的台海客觀現狀。

外交部也衷心感謝史瓦帝尼王國與此次居中斡旋協助我國交涉的友盟及理念相近國家。台灣會持續以務實、穩健的方式拓展外交空間，堅定走向世界，也讓世界走進台灣。

MOFA strongly condemns PRC political & economic coercion enacted to pressurize other countries into changing their sovereign decisions, revoking overflight clearances & parroting PRC talking points!

President Lai Ching-te's planned state visit to our African ally, Eswatini, on an invitation from King Mswati III, had to be postponed after Seychelles, Mauritius, and Madagascar revoked overflight clearances without warning just before departure.

MOFA condemns the PRC's politicization and weaponization of flight information regions to interfere in the sovereign decisions of other countries, seriously impacting the routine functioning of global civil aviation networks. We also protest Seychelles and Madagascar parroting PRC talking points that challenge international norms and flight safety. We call on the international community to recognize the political and economic coercion that the PRC enacts against other countries, as well as its flagrant interference in their internal politics. This behavior is not solely directed at Taiwan, but also poses a threat to the democratic world order and international law.

MOFA reiterates that the Republic of China (Taiwan) is a sovereign democratic nation, and neither side of the Taiwan Strait is subordinate to the other. We have a right to engage with the world, and no country should stand in our way. Any statements that attempt to undermine Taiwan's sovereignty have no bearing on the global consensus and the objective reality of the Taiwan Strait status quo.

MOFA offers sincere thanks to the Kingdom of Eswatini and other allies and like-minded countries that have attempted to mediate on our behalf. Taiwan will continue to adopt a pragmatic and steady approach in expanding our diplomatic space and engaging with the world.
