Farewell to The Fox: Teng Po-Jen’s Novel

To me, recalling my youth is never easy. My career in teaching has given me opportunities to observe the behaviors and creative ideas of university students. Through photography, their daily life experiences and feelings resemble a mirror, through which I can project myself back to my past.

Career / Prize
Graduated from the post-graduate program of the Department of Graphic Communication and Digital Publishing at Shi Hsin University.

Teng Po-Jen was born in Pingtung County, Taiwan, in 1969. He graduated from the post-graduate program of the Department of Graphic Communication and Digital Publishing at Shi Hsin University. On a trip with his family as an elementary school student, his father showed him how to take photos. When the negatives were developed, his father’s compliment—“You took better photos than your uncle!”—thus ignited his passion towards photography. Currently engaged in media work and teaching photography, he also has a passion for fashion, documentary, editing and directing, as well as conceptual photography. His creations show a concern for the land, people, and cities. Image creation represents a way in which he communicates with the world. He regards photography as his second life.
