For more than 40 years, he has created miniature buildings at a scale of 1:12, transforming British architectural heritage, historical atmosphere, and everyday memories into intricately crafted miniature worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike conventional scale models constructed from fixed architectural plans, Welch\u2019s works often begin with personal observation, memory, and imagination. From structural details and weathered surfaces to interior furnishings and decorative objects, each element is handcrafted with exceptional attention to detail, giving every miniature its own distinctive narrative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1565\" height=\"1046\" src=\"https:\/\/eng.cycu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/\u6c11\u773e\u99d0\u8db3\u6b23\u8cdeGerry-Welch\u7d30\u81a9\u6253\u9020\u7684\u8896\u73cd\u5c4b\u4f5c\u54c1\uff0c\u8fd1\u8ddd\u96e2\u611f\u53d7\u5fae\u7e2e\u85dd\u8853\u4e2d\u7684\u5efa\u7bc9\u7d30\u7bc0\u8207\u5947\u5e7b\u5de7\u601d\u3002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-35296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eng.cycu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/\u6c11\u773e\u99d0\u8db3\u6b23\u8cdeGerry-Welch\u7d30\u81a9\u6253\u9020\u7684\u8896\u73cd\u5c4b\u4f5c\u54c1\uff0c\u8fd1\u8ddd\u96e2\u611f\u53d7\u5fae\u7e2e\u85dd\u8853\u4e2d\u7684\u5efa\u7bc9\u7d30\u7bc0\u8207\u5947\u5e7b\u5de7\u601d\u3002.jpg 1565w, https:\/\/eng.cycu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/\u6c11\u773e\u99d0\u8db3\u6b23\u8cdeGerry-Welch\u7d30\u81a9\u6253\u9020\u7684\u8896\u73cd\u5c4b\u4f5c\u54c1\uff0c\u8fd1\u8ddd\u96e2\u611f\u53d7\u5fae\u7e2e\u85dd\u8853\u4e2d\u7684\u5efa\u7bc9\u7d30\u7bc0\u8207\u5947\u5e7b\u5de7\u601d\u3002-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/eng.cycu.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/\u6c11\u773e\u99d0\u8db3\u6b23\u8cdeGerry-Welch\u7d30\u81a9\u6253\u9020\u7684\u8896\u73cd\u5c4b\u4f5c\u54c1\uff0c\u8fd1\u8ddd\u96e2\u611f\u53d7\u5fae\u7e2e\u85dd\u8853\u4e2d\u7684\u5efa\u7bc9\u7d30\u7bc0\u8207\u5947\u5e7b\u5de7\u601d\u3002-1536x1027.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1565px) 100vw, 1565px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the English-language guided tours, Welch not only introduces the architectural features and craftsmanship of his works, but also reflects on his decades-long creative journey.

Each completed piece, he says, carries a part of his own life within it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through the artist\u2019s first-hand interpretation, visitors are able to move beyond simply viewing the works and gain a deeper understanding of the cultural background, personal memories, and creative thinking that shaped them.
