BOBA YOU X ME: TAIWAN'S FIRST-EVER CULTURAL AND ARTISTIC BUBBLE TEA EXHIBITION BY ORBITEL INTERNATIONAL, A GLOBAL LEADER OF INSTANT FOODS

A cultural reimagining of bubble tea through contemporary art…

Orbitel International's O's Bubble reinterpretsTaiwan'smost iconic drink as a creative catalyst

 TAIPEI,April 25, 2025/PRNewswire/ -- In a city synonymous with its bubble tea culture, Orbitel International, under its creative brand O's Bubble, is flipping the script on how brands engage with culture.

In the quiet act of making, connection begins — BOBA YOU X ME, by Orbitel International Corp., believes in the stories we build when we believe in ourselves.

Their latest endeavor — BOBA YOU X ME — launches this April asTaiwan'sfirst-ever cultural and artistic bubble tea exhibition. Through this historic collaboration between an FMCG leader and four Taiwanese artists, the project reshapes a humble drink into a symbol of resilience, connection, and transformation.

OpeningApril 26at Node94 inTaipei, the exhibition runs untilMay 10and coincides with"BubbleTeaDay"(April 30). Across 15 days, visitors will encounter mirrored floors, figurative sculptures, and kinetic installations that reframe the ubiquitous boba pearl as a trans-cultural icon.

When FMCG Meets Fine Art: A First in Taiwan 

Unlike traditional brand showcases, BOBA YOU X ME is an immersive artistic provocation, a quiet divergence from commercial tropes. Orbitel International doesn't simply sponsor this project; it co-creates it. Behind the vision is a team of creatives who saw in boba not just nostalgia, but narrative, led by the mind of Orbitel International's own Creative Director,Ken Hsieh.

"We believe in the elasticity ofTaiwan'sculture — how it bounces across oceans, soft but strong,"saidFanny Chen, Co-Founder and CEO of Orbitel International."This isn't about selling drinks. This is about sendingTaiwan'screative voice abroad, shaped by artists, sustained by community."

Four Artists, Four Interpretations of'Connection'

Ken Hsieh– The Creative Brainchild Behind the Expo,

"Design is my language. But art is how I ask questions."

As the project's conceptual lead and Creative Director of Orbitel International, Hsieh embodies the intersection of design, emotion, and brand culture. A recipient of iF Design, Red Dot, and Lahti Triennale honors, his dual life as a painter and designer has made him one ofTaiwan'smost versatile creative voices. His curatorial vision threads the show together — part visual poetry, part cultural invitation. 

Rong-Chih Huang – Curating Play and Participation,

"A good exhibition invites reflection. A great one invites response."

As a senior curator and education lead at the Ju Ming Museum, Huang merges pedagogy with participation. His practice builds bridges between contemporary art, children's imagination, and social spaces. 

Chi-Hsuan Hsieh– Sculpting Silence,

"Sculpture lets me anchor fleeting things — a smile, a season, a goodbye."

Recipient of the 2024 Kaohsiung Art Award, Hsieh's sculptural lexicon spans the monumental and the miniature. His works are about presence — sometimes still, often aching — always reflective of a world in transition. 

Shang-Fu Tsai– Assemblage of Absurdity, 

"I build misfits. Things that twitch, blink, creak—like us, like memory."

Known for reimagining discarded materials into mechanical storytelling, Tsai explores human quirks through malfunctioning installations. His practice — part satire, part kinetic theatre — teases at the logic of the everyday. 

A Soft Power Statement 

In a world chasing speed and sales,  Orbitel International chooses a different pace — one led by artistic sincerity and cultural integrity. Through BOBA YOU X ME, the brand affirms that commerce and creativity are not in opposition, but co-conspirators in building lasting meaning.

"We're not just serving beverages," says Charlotte Chen Vice President  Sales& Marketing, Orbitel International,"We're serving stories. Each smile, each sip, each sculpture — it all speaks to how we connect, how we belong, and how we imagine."
