His delicate mechanical wonders sometimes require years to complete. Even before the actual producing process begins, Hsu needs to put several months of work into drawing drafts and detailed blueprints of the art work's mechanical structures.
As all the components and machinery in his works are self-made, Hsu has built up his collections of mechanical apparatuses into a small factory. "My studio in Taoyuan (桃園) is filled with professional equipment of industrial standards … . Once my brother came to visit my studio and said to me 'you don't have much left in your bank account, do you?'" Hsu said.
The mechanics specialist will bring his self-made gears and simple equipment to the workshops help participants make their own mechanical art works. "It will be a lot of fun to see the MOCA studio turned into a small factory," Lin said.
