Christoph Wiesner, co-director of the Jimei × Arles International Photo Festival, said that, "Metal Odyssey offers a unique dual perspective from both the artists and curators. This project stems from profound intimate experiences with illness and family relationships, skillfully utilizing and integrating medical documents, personal annotations, and imagery, transforming them into conceptual expressions."

The exhibition will be displayed at the Three Shadows Photography Art Centre in Beijing in spring next year. Award-winning curators Yi-Ning Lin and Chia-Shin Yang will participate in the "Imaging Curator Award" incubation program, engaging in academic research, international exchange activities, and receiving a cash prize of 100,000 yuan to further their curation endeavors.
