People often stop to observe the Koji pottery figurines that ornament temples with their vibrant colors, lively expressions, and dynamic attitudes. Many grandparents bring their grandchildren to watch temple figurines, telling countless stories.
Chiayi, home of Koji pottery, has nurtured numerous artisans of Koji pottery, becoming a place where the masters made their mark. Chiayi established the only gallery displaying Koji pottery in 2000, which reopened in 2020 with a completely fresh look, better preserving and promoting Koji pottery. This gallery welcomes people to come in, hear about the history of Koji pottery, and see some Koji pottery figurines act out their stories.
Next, Koji pottery will be further demystified, and its industry is expected to bloom in a variety of ways. The exhibition, full of interactive fun, creates a dramatic-situation-based space to display our vast collections, offering visitors a comprehensive, broad, and solid experience of Koji pottery.
