Extracting the Soul of the Wilderness: A Curatorial Experiment on Taiwanese Herbal Desserts - Yeshi
Auto-TranslationWith a passion for plants, Mingfeng, the founder of Yeshi, combines the concept of natural living into an herbal tea shop that resembles an art museum. By using wild-gathered grasses and everyday ingredients, he creates various blends and applications to share the beauty of herbal plants for the body and soul, also bringing people closer to nature.
As the founder of "Yeshi," Mingfeng has had a deep affection for plants since his youth. With a background in horticulture, he initially approached plant gathering with the mindset of an urban nature collector. Driven by personal interests, he continuously explored the relationships between plants and various fields. As a plant enthusiast, he struggled with bronchial issues for many years and sought the help of Western medicine multiple times without relief. By chance, after consuming traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, he saw significant improvement in his bronchial condition, which fueled his ongoing passion for plants and led him to delve into herbal applications related to traditional Chinese medicine.
At the invitation of a friend, Mingfeng finally had the opportunity to open a store, further promoting his love for Taiwanese herbs. With "Yeshi" as a base, Mingfeng has created a space to share his thoughts on urban gathering and herbal living applications, allowing more people to connect with nature through various means and experience the beauty that plants bring to life.
