A circle is the most common geometric shape we can find in nature. Ancient Egyptians believed that the circle was a holy shape given to humans by God. All religions around the world use a circle as a symbol of brightness. This artwork uses six circles and three rings arranged in layers. With the 12 apertures reflected in the water, fog is created to represent the mysterious feeling of the arrival of God.
當南北跑的環半島成為偶爾的日常,風景也就隨著日常延展開。入夜走行,路燈與往來的車輛化作光點抽成的線。南下的國道行駛不容易慢下來,夜間的光田從彰化開始出現蹤跡,沿著鄉間小路到了更南方都能看見。試著用手機或者相機想把光田記錄下來,而眼中看到的光點,在數位曝光的畫面中便成了帶著光的鳥群起乘。人類視覺暫留(觀看)與數位曝光(攝影)的光軌,在同一個瞬間揉合了兩個世界的影像,共存於具有時間性的瞬間,成為當下。
When touring around half of Taiwan in a day becomes possible, our views expand. Walking at night, street lights, and vehicles traveling by look like dots connected in a line. It was difficult to slow down when driving on the southbound national highway, but the field lights at night can be traced from Changhua further south along rural paths. The artist tried to record with a smartphone or a camera, so that lights seen in the images of digital lithography became a flock of birds in flight. The light traces seen in our vision combine with digital lithography, and in that moment the two worlds co-exist.
