小金魚是孩提時可愛的記憶。像是水池裡自由自在游泳的朵朵小花，金色鱗光歡喜地漾起水面重重漣漪，亨唱起柔和的旋律。隨著水色輕盈吹送的波光粼粼，賞心悦目的活潑動態，也讓人一同沈浸在美好的心情裡。 也或許“如魚得水”的確幸感更能詮釋那樣的心境。人總得在不經意、没有防備的時候才能驀然回首發現，原本怡然自得的身心況味也就好比“魚忘了水，水也忘了魚”。在片刻輕盈的轉化中，在不羈的時空交融下，身心思惟可以化作魚水，在波光水色中相忘江湖。 The little goldfish is a cute memory from childhood. Like little flowers floating freely in the pool, the goldfish happily rippled the water and sang a soft melody. With the light and sparkling water, the pleasing and lively movement also makes people immersed in a joyful mood. Or maybe the feeling of being…

美好的年華猶如金色的青春。歲月的長河裡，光彩耀眼、璀璨絢爛；時空的維度中，恣意翻飛、燃燒綻放。青春是桀驁的靈魂、狂放不覊的榮光；赤誠的熱情能讓風雨無阻，鬥志更勝層峰巨浪。無懼的青春是信念，也是願力。願青春始終伴我們同行，引領我們看見生命中所有豐盛與光輝。致青春 永不停歇的自由與光芒。 Beautiful years are like golden youth.In the long river of time, the brilliance is dazzling and gorgeous.In the dimension of time and space, it flies, burns and blooms at will.Youth is an unruly soul and unbridled glory.Sincere enthusiasm can make it rain or shine, and the fighting spirit can overcome the huge waves.Fearless…

村上春樹對於“原創性”曾提出3項特質： 1. 辨識- 獨特的風格 2. 進化- 持續的精進 3. 系統- 豐富的脈絡 一般的創作過程，總是透過一次次的嘗試和修正，去釐清事物的本質、發掘思路的邏輯、窮盡語言的準確，以逐步逼近課題的核心。而隨著創作質量到達一定的水平，再轉身回顧那蓽路藍縷的來時路，大致都能看見一道道隱約的脈絡。在持續動態的藝術實踐中，思維逐漸清晰的同時，創作脈絡也會跟著明確下來。 研究所的論文裡曾放了一張作品的“族譜 family tree”。那是將當時2年來攻讀MFA的41件作品，依照特徵和主題作的梳理和歸類。看見有趣的事是，原來生活中自己所關注的內容是什麼，以及過程中逐漸抽絲剝繭的脈絡。 有幾條創作脈絡確實會綿延十幾二十年，就好像生活本身的有機狀態，人總是在顛簸與滾動中，試著說想說的話；試著做想做的事。過程中你可能無法準確的斷捨離，當然也就不需急於當下定義所有。只要隨著歲月的洗鍊和形意的熟成，或許走在這樣一座森林的路上，因著一路上藝術實踐的積累與信心，總能讓我們知道那道晨光就在不遠處。 Haruki Murakami once proposed three characteristics for “originality”: 1. Identification – Unique style 2. Evolution – Continuous improvement 3. System – Rich context The general creative process is always to clarify the essence of things, explore the logic of ideas,…

人們說創作者像園丁，捻花蒔草、耕耘著自己的夢想花園。我倒覺得自己像馬戲團班子的馴獸師，在美學探索和應物象形間，調理著各種迷人屬性的實相。 雖說動植物都是美麗的物種，但優雅調柔和生猛乖張，確實是兩個世界的故事。只是在詩境的意象與戲劇性張力上，這樣的鮮活動態與光影量體—我的馬戲團，或許正能夠如實呈現自己內心小劇場的樣子。 People say that creators are like gardeners, twisting flowers and weeds, cultivating their own dream gardens. I feel like an animal trainer in a circus troupe, adjusting the reality of various fascinating attributes between aesthetic exploration and object iconography. Although animals and plants are beautiful species, the elegance and harmony and the violence…

在作品“蘭”按照原本想像的樣子完成後，有一段時間，腦海裡經常浮現三島由紀夫的〈金閣寺〉，一種精神性的“金色”。 蘭這個意象，一直以來象徵著中國古典文人的氣韻，猶如墨綠色般的溫文儒雅。心裡思忖著，文藝在呼吸著當代氛圍時，創作在本質上也確實思辨著那個屬於時代或我的“詮釋權”。“應該”、“理當”的認知脈絡，經常在如私小說般的創作意志下被反覆斟酌。對於本質的探究，也猶如星火般提點著我與創作的關係。 於是，相較於熾烈爐火下的金色，我將所看到的，雖然一樣濃烈，但更像香醇威士忌所散發的那種質地溫潤的金色，呈現出一派生鮮的當代性格。 After the work “Orchid” was completed as I originally imagined. For a period of time, Mishima Yukio’s “The Temple of the Golden Pavilion” often appeared in my mind, one kind of spiritual “golden”. The image of orchid has always symbolized the charm of classical Chinese literati, as gentle and elegant as dark…

嚮往的 憧憬的 期待的彼方與此時此地之間不是距離或尺度讓彼此分隔兩個世界而是心境一個祈願趨近圓滿的心境通過信心能成全兩個時空連到一起 Yearning for, longing for, looking forward tobetween the other side and here and nownot distance or scaleLet the two worlds be separated from each otherBut the state of mindA state of mind in which prayers are approaching perfectionthrough faithCan connect two time and space together

安住當下。單純地覺察當下湧現的念頭：一朵又一朵 自然而然源起自心的明性與空性。來時路澄澈如鏡 始終如是，唯本心不起對境 隨順自如。雲來來去去，心清清楚楚， 安住當下。 Stay in the present moment.Simply be aware of the thoughts that arise in the present moment:One after another, naturally.Originating from the clarity and emptiness of the mind.When we came here, the road was as clear as a mirror. It has always been like this.Only the original intention cannot afford to…

初中時，在迷哈雷彗星。嚮往深邃的夜空中，那道劃破天際的長長尾巴。高中加入了天文社，到處去追流星雨。還記得擎天崗上，那好幾道從滿天星斗中滑過、稍縱即逝的美麗驚歎號。 大學時玩起電焊、乙炔切割。喜歡高溫燃燒的氣體切割鋼板時，大量飛濺的火花。研究所在紐約玩鍛造。工坊外細雪紛飛，手中的鐵件卻在鼓風爐的熾烈煤碳中烘燒著濃烈的光與熱。 紅色的火焰是能量散發的光與熱，極致的青色火心則是內斂的能量小宇宙。在不停追逐光與熱的同時，生命綻放璀璨的能量，也映照斑斕美麗的新世界。 When I was in junior high school, I was fascinated by Halley’s Comet. Yearning for the long tail that cuts through the sky in the deep night sky. In high school, I joined the astronomy club and went everywhere to chase meteor showers. I still remember the beautiful fleeting exclamation marks on…

泉水是一首歌，一種能量的載體。隨著音樂唱和，動靜快慢間，都展現著優雅的流暢。泉水也像小動物，俏皮的小精靈。從角落竄出，乖張地蔓延，又任性地散逸。泉水歌頌著源自活脱的生命本質， 與始終如一的不覊靈魂。 Spring water is a song, a carrier of energy.Sing along with the music, the movement is fast and slow,All show elegant smoothness.The spring water also looks like small animals, playful elves.Sprung out from the corner and spread perversely,And dissipated willfully.The spring water sings the praises of the living essence of life,With a consistent…
