Hsiao-Ron Cheng is a Taiwanese illustrator living in Taipei, Taiwan. She attended Taiwan University of Art from 2007-2010, receiving her BFA in Fine Art. Her work alludes to the deformation that physically separates human from plants. The environments and situations that she paints are often of surrealist nature, reminiscent of school, and partly based on phantasy.

Taipei / Place

A beautiful old alley - one of my favorite walking path to collage. The residents in the alley still remain the old school living style that can rarely be seen in the city nowadays.

Taipei / Restaurant

Hidden in the small alleys of Minsheng District, this small Japanese joint is quaint with warm lighting and comfortable wooden chairs. Get a taste of homemade Japanese food, with set dishes revolving around entrées such as pork shogayaki, vegetable soup curry, or shiso chicken rolls.

Taipei / Cafe

My favorite cafe in Taipei. For friends gathering, gossiping, discussing, it is more about just having a lunch. The meals are wonderful. I cannot remember how many times I sat here.

Taipei / Park

I thought I was in fairyland the first time I came here. I have never been to such a natural place in Taipei. Cows, birds, mountains, a great meadow that you cannot see the end. This is my favorite place in Taipei.

Taipei / Place

The Sanzhi UFO houses were abandoned buildings in Sanzhi District, the place described as a ghost town and were torn down by the government in late 2008. I was fortune to visit there once with my uni friends in time. One of the most surreal place I have ever been... what a shame the buildings are all gone now.
