My work was inspired by my daily life. Through the process of making art, I start to think about the passing of time and stretching of memory.

When the exhibition begins, I look forward to see the work, that concludes the meaning of history, culture and personal memory, create connections with the audiences.
MY WAY BACK HOME
2016 Taipei
In 2014, we encountered social groups concerned about the homeless issue on the road by chance. They were organizing street presentations. We found that the homeless seem to be different from our origin imagination. From that time, it decreased our curiosity about the homeless. We put attention to information of the homeless and participate in related activities. Gradually, we realized the difficulties of the homeless, and the seed of the My Way Back Home plan was in our heart.
In 2016, a chance to exhibition in the Wanhua District, the Bopiliao Historical Block. When it comes to Wanhua, the homeless are reappeared in people’s mind. Besides Longshan Temple, Wanhua is a place that many homeless people assemble in. Therefore, by the opportunity, we observe the phenomenon of the homeless, and convert it into art and text records. Consequently, We conceive My Way Back Home plan.
THE FOREST IS MY DOOR
2016 Taipei, Yunlin, Houli
離開台北，那幾天回后里鄉下，跟母親在空曠地摘採芒草，是離阿公墓園不遠的地方，我們像發現秘密基地一般，無止境地在陽光下探險、曝曬，我陡然發現我媽的俐落身體遺傳給我了，是芒草的堅毅、稻草的包容。
太魯閣部落青年曾赤腳和我上山找昆蟲，結過的蜘蛛網，他總能輕易找到。黝黑的他，挺立自在地說著：「森林是我家的門。」這話，一直記得，一直感覺。
從小手都沒停過，像風一般的女孩，喜愛摘採葉子在三合院辦家家酒，現在很多左鄰右舍玩伴都離去了，是長大了，大到阿嬤都老了。她看著我開心拿著大把豐收的芒草，會憶起那年代婦女辛苦綁芒草當掃把賣的日子。細心幫我整理綑綁時，偷偷讓攝影機記錄下阿嬤的真情歲月。
稻草在台灣曾是如此親近，在傳統社會生活裡被運用著；芒草在空曠地隨風飄蕩，成為一片風景。但現在在都市裏，這些已漸漸看不見了。選擇了編織的重複，彷彿就在體驗生命的流動，寂靜空間下的創作，作品提供了想像的場域，彷彿在穿越後開始思考：在同片天空下成長，什麼門，不扭曲自己，不破壞環境。
