我的作品以主視覺的碎布結串作為一種人與人、人與地方及物件之間關係連結的象徵，試圖以藝術的方法來聯繫人們的情感及製造記憶上的共鳴，此作中我將綷布結串結合了臺灣在各種節慶中成為妝點節日氣氛不可或缺之物件的燈籠，用懸吊的方式來呈現有如空中的浮雲，並繫以小鈴來創造如雨滴般的響聲，為環境氣氛帶來平靜的效果。
My artwork utilizes the interwoven fabric strings as a symbolic representation of the connections between people, places, and objects, aiming to evoke emotions and create resonances with viewers through artistic expression. In this piece, I combine the fabric strings with lanterns, which are essential elements in various festive celebrations in Taiwan, symbolizing joyous atmospheres. By suspending them in the air like floating clouds and adding small bells that create gentle sounds reminiscent of raindrops, I aim to bring a sense of tranquility to the environment.
