This exhibition is the most complete AKIBO robot display in Taiwan, featuring large-scale three-dimensional robot artworks, intricate 3D models, and hundreds of figurines. There’s also artist Li Mingdao’s latest creation: the “AKIBO Robots Magic Mirror AR (augmented reality) interactive experience.” This interactive experience uniquely combines mirror imaging principles and motion-sensing technology, allowing visitors to engage in real-time physical interaction and dialogue with the robots through the imagery. When visitors enter the interactive zone, the AKIBO robots will run into the interactive mirror frame to join in the fun, happily and playfully mirroring with the audience.

Artist Li Mingdao Akibo Lee is deeply influenced by “Neo-Expressionism,” emphasizing that creations should have their own unique visual language. “My language is ‘robots’ and ‘metal shells.’ We know there are many types of robots, … but the robots I make are meant to comfort people’s hearts and accompany us as we bravely move forward in uncertain times.” This is also the core concept of this exhibition. He said that every time he travels, he visits his robot children. “These works are like my children, slowly growing into one big family. Being able to gather them together for such a large-scale exhibition feels like organizing a family trip—it’s a first for me, and I’m very excited!”

Lin Kuan-yu, Director of the New Taipei City Government Cultural Affairs Bureau, stated that artist Akibo Lee’s robot installation works are endearing, highly recognizable, and widely loved by teenagers, showcasing his uniquely charming personal style. This exhibition specially brings together the warm and comforting AKIBO robot works, transforming them through stunning visual art and technological applications. The goal is for both children and adults to engage with and appreciate contemporary art in a relaxed and lively way.

The entire AKIBO robot family has gathered in a lively reunion!! Over 100 robot works from the past 10 years, 20 sets of robot art pieces, 9 detailed models, 100 figurines, a 30-meter giant AKIBO Robots full illustrated wall, and new interactive magic mirror AR installations.
