Born in 1955, Chao-min Chen has dedicated over 40 years to the art of wood lattice carving. In 2019, he was recognized as a Traditional Craftsman by the Ministry of Culture. A master in carving lattice wooden panels, Chen runs one of the few remaining decorative panel carving workshops in Taiwan. Faced with export challenges after the 2011 earthquake in Japan, Chen stated, “Traditional industries may adapt and evolve, but the legacy of traditional craftsmanship must always be preserved. If we do not safeguard our own culture, we risk being assimilated." In recent years, he has been passionately involved in heritage programs, educating others in lattice carving techniques in an effort to revive this important cultural craft.
