The string of major awards he has won, including a Golden Horse film award, a Golden Melody Award and a Golden Indie Music Award, are not just a testament to the recognition that Suming has achieved in the visual arts and music scenes, but are also a reflection of the development of his own tribe’s culture in the context of contemporary society.
