三十年前彰化永樂街是最熱鬧擁擠、寸步難行的區域，現在因商圈轉移、人潮外流，漸漸的沒落。透過兩位藝術家的創作將賦予這個商圈全新的故事，在古蹟慶安宮前召喚出神將與神獸。Kyo召喚道教中的武財神—趙元帥；Leho召喚龍之長子—囚牛。他們分別代表的是財氣與音律

The corrugated iron is a very common architectural type in Taiwan, but it cause we difficult to paint on such a curved surface. In addition to the difficulty of drawing straight lines, the work from other angles will also be deformed due to the protrusion of the corrugated board.
鐵皮的浪板是在台灣非常常見的建築類型，但在這樣的曲面上作畫變的十分困難，除了線條不容易畫直以外，從其他的角度看作品也會因為浪板的凸起導致變形。
"The Nine Sons of the Dragon" written by Li Dongyang of the Ming Dynasty: "The prisoned cow, a yellow dragon with scales. He love to hear music, like to play the Chinese piano, and has high attainments in music, so many piano heads use his statues. This work was taken as a fantasy, the rhythm that played again has summoned the dragon to Yongle Street.
明朝李東陽著《懷麓堂集》之〈記龍生九子〉記：「囚牛，龍種，平生好音樂，今胡琴頭上刻獸是其遺像。」形狀為有鱗角的黃色小龍，平生很喜歡音樂，酷愛彈琴，對音樂有很高的造詣，很多琴頭都用祂的造像。這個作品作為一個幻想，館裡再響起的音律將這隻神獸召喚到永樂街。
Dragon’s inspiration came from Ji Le Xuan in Yongle Lane. It used to be the historic and famous traditional music hall in central Taiwan. It has just recently obtained the opportunity to rehabilitate, recreating the historical splendor of the historical site.
龍的靈感是來自於永樂巷內的集樂軒，它曾經是台灣中部地區歷史悠久和著名的北管曲館，近期剛獲得復館的機會，重新讓古蹟重現歷史的光采，而龍的長子-囚牛正是一隻喜愛音樂的神獸，我想祂因該會喜歡這裡。
