I was born and raised in a walled village with lack modernity. Even though the surroundings do not own the most charming view of landscapes, intimate sentiments towards nature and homeliness fill my heart. From riding a bicycle to taking public vehicles, we cannot avoid getting into this highly developed society. Certain advocated criteria of success always impose on us as objectives of living. Due to capitalism, I deeply realize the background of my growth essentially makes the distance and suspicion between independence and mainstream.
My walled village is undergoing change of modernization. I appropriate modern daily objects to imitate natural scenes, the sense, and the consciousness, like using water pipes to pretend fountains. Every scene represents twisted mind, a lie or a fabrication, ironically, as well as redemption.
自小活於繁華以外，看到的不是現代化的林林總總，身旁縱沒有最怡人的山川景色，也盡是一片鄉土情。幾近二十載歲月後獨個走進市區，喧嚷的都市每每引導人崇尚眾多特定的成功標準，才愈發意識到成長經歷早已植根了質疑主流價值的動機。
居住的圍村環境正經歷現代化改變，我以都市產物模仿自然現象，如以水喉管噴灑模仿噴泉，一幕幕是被現世扭曲心靈的虛妄，卻又是救贖。
