Our passion, emotions, and attention travel through the 8 hours and 9,616.54 kilometers that separate us. Yet, in that distance, they blur. After three years without such a separation, I found myself compelled to fly to her, to see the deer and swans in quiet harmony.

This work seeks to visualize the detachment and the complex emotions that cannot be put into words. The narrative unfolds with screens of varying densities and resolutions, constructing this installation that embodies the connection across time and space.

我們的熱情、情感與關注跨越了 8 小時與 9,616.54 公里，這讓它們變得模糊。三年來從未有過的漫長分離，促使我飛往她身旁，看著鹿群與天鵝共享寧靜。

作品試圖呈現難以言語的疏離與複雜情感。不同密度與解析度的螢幕構成這組裝置藝術，映照出跨越時間與空間的連結。

he interplay between static and dynamic elements blurs the boundary between rational analysis and emotional response, immersing the audience in the artist's contemplation of romanticized violence and the unsettling feeling woven into the conflict.

透過畫布與投影的並置，此作品將油畫的魅力與精確編程的動態影像融合，靜態與動態元素的交錯模糊了理性分析與情感反應的界線，使觀眾沉浸於藝術家對浪漫化暴力的思考，並體驗衝突中隱藏的不安。

Performance, light on wall, 4 nails, 2024, Size and duration variable.

This artwork is a choreography of live-generated moving images, featuring the artist's hands in rhythmic motion. Through symmetrical patterns and the interplay of black and white, it explores the act of mark-making with light upon the wall. The work invites contemplation: are the black lines the marks, or is it the white light that inscribes its presence?

此作品是一場以藝術家雙手的動態影像現場生成的編舞。透過對稱的圖案及黑白交錯的運動，探索光在牆面上的標記。作品邀請觀眾思考 : 究竟是黑色線條留下了痕跡，還是白色光影塑造了它的存在？

Intersection

Virtual installation on Meta Quest 3 (Re-master of the physical installation), Touchdesigner, 2025, Size and duration variable.

While we sleep, the heartbeat of the metropolis never ceases—an unseen pulse that binds us to the city in ways we cannot fully comprehend. This work is inspired by the artist's vision of the city at midnight—a moment when its rhythm is both solitary and alive. The beats shift as visitors interact with the abstract circles, responding to their movements; the faster their gestures, the quicker the pulse. These sounds intertwine, forming a symphony of the city's heartbeat—an echo of its existence when it sings alone.

當我們沉睡時，都市的心跳從未停止——這股無形的脈動將我們與城市緊密相連，而我們卻難以真正理解其運行方式。此作品的靈感來自藝術家對午夜城市的想像——一個既孤獨又充滿生命律動的時刻。當訪客在抽象圓形前移動，節奏隨之改變；動作越快，心跳越急促。這些聲音交織，匯聚成城市心跳的交響曲——在孤獨時刻低語著它的存在。
