"加拉島國際Baggat Art大展"
在南韓有個Baggat藝術團體，每年都在冬季期間舉行戶外藝術節並邀請藝術家進駐創作。在2013年時我受邀前往駐地，這是我第一個在國外駐村的經驗與作品。藝術家們從不同國家、不同地點來到這一個被雪覆蓋的Jara島上。每個人穿著厚重的禦寒衣物在幾乎每天約零下20度的低溫環境中工作，現場的基地營裡面也有著可供取暖的大暖爐。為了確保人員在雪地工作的安全，主辦單位有一套嚴謹的工作時間表與規劃。藝術家們遵循每天的時間表工作來完成作品。
真實的關係處在自然界裡頭，而每個不一樣的環境都給予我創作上的不同的啟發。這一次在加拉島雪地上進行的創作，我試著連結這自然的細微脈動，與這片土地建立一種新的平衡關係。當我穿著厚實的外套漫步在一片白皚皚的雪地時，看著遠方被雪覆蓋的山陵線與時不時水面上緩緩飄動的浮冰，彷彿能感覺到那自然的脈動，於是我將這次的創作名為「雪脈」。
此作品我使用許多彎曲的木頭，找到其平衡中心後將它立在佈滿雪的河邊土地上，再將雪塊小心翼翼地放置其上。在風的吹佛下，作品開始輕微地擺動，在寒冷的天氣哩，作品與遠方的山脈和水面上緩慢流動的浮冰共同形成另一種奇特的風景，就像是自然彼此之間訴說的細語，而部分藏在雪塊裡的種子也正等待春季來時落地新生。
Snow pulse

"Jara Island International Baggat Art Exhibition"
There is a Baggat art group in South Korea, which holds an outdoor art festival every year during the winter and invites artists to work there. In 2013, I was invited to a residency. This was my first experience and work in a foreign art residency. Artists came from different countries and places to the snow-covered island of Jara. Everyone wears thick warm clothing and works in a low temperature environment of about minus 20 degrees almost every day. The base camp on site also has a large heater for heating. In order to ensure the safety of personnel working in the snow, the organizer has a strict work schedule and plan. Artists work according to a daily schedule to complete their work.
The real relationship is in nature, and each different environment gives me different inspirations for creation. This time I created the work on the snow on Gala Island. I tried to connect with the subtle pulse of nature and establish a new balanced relationship with the land. When I was walking in a white snowfield wearing a thick coat, looking at the snow-covered mountain lines in the distance and the ice floes floating slowly on the water from time to time, I seemed to be able to feel the pulsation of nature, so I named this creation "Snow pulse".
For this work, I used many curved pieces of wood. After finding the center of balance, I stood it on the snowy riverside land, and then carefully placed the snow blocks on top. Under the blowing of the wind, the work began to sway slightly. In the cold weather, the work, together with the distant mountains and the slowly flowing ice floes on the water, formed another strange landscape, just like the whispers of nature talking to each other, and some seeds hidden in the snow are waiting for spring to fall to the ground and be reborn.
