to die for a new skin

paint cans, wires, hanger, leaves, flower pot nets, ceramics, magnet ball, vortex coil
As the leaves fade and die, a portal to rebirth emerges - weaving a new skin from the traces of pain and energizing the concealed echoes in old containers. A ceremony is waiting to be unveiled, summoned by the weight of memory.
當葉片漸漸枯萎凋落，一道重生的入口悄然浮現 —— 從痛楚的痕跡中編織出嶄新的肌膚，喚醒舊容器中潛藏的回聲與能量。
一場儀式正等待揭幕，由記憶的重量所召喚。

Creating my own set of fingers with ceramics, I’m able to go around the streets and play the different surfaces like an instrument. According to their structure and texture and the noise from the surrounding environment, the rhythm and sound from each moment were unique. I plugged my earphones into the ZOOM handy recorder to listen to the surroundings immensely and to record the sounds; and used my phone for video, to also keep data of the visual elements.
用陶瓷創作出屬於自己的「手指」，我能夠在街道上演奏不同的表面，彷彿演奏一件樂器。根據它們的結構與質地，以及周圍環境的噪音，每一刻的節奏與聲音都是獨一無二的。我將耳機插入ZOOM便攜錄音機，專注地聆聽周圍的聲音並進行錄音；同時使用手機錄製視頻，保留視覺元素的數據。
