I enjoy wandering among the mountains and rivers crafted by time, reading the subtle clues and traces left by living beings and the environments. And try to manifest what they are telling me through creation - those written in the mother tongue of the Earth, connecting ancient environments and potential futures, vague and captivating memories and stories.
Under these precious encounters and opportunities, I often imagine: What traces will we leave, when we enter the geological layer known as the Anthropocene? When future lives peek into the past, will they be able to see the gentle entanglements that once existed between the former species?
Following the attraction of evolutionary facts and spiritual intuition, I perceive and respond to the beings that intersect with me. Through gazing, listening, touching, and depicting, I attempt to reveal the entanglement between organisms and environment, and the vitality which stretches among substances. Therefore, creation becomes a form of singing, bringing me back to a childlike state. In the landscapes that unfolded between frolic, narrating a ballad where life converges and continues to extend through these crystals. It allows me to point lightly towards that profound, just as the ephemeral life constructs the eternity.
The birth of each work is as if the discovery of a new species. A series of mixed media, such as sculpture, video, photography, paper, sound, become sensory evidences of these discoveries. I hope that as we - me and you, as well as the broader existence - traverse the realms of between water and rock, land and air, reality and dream, we may come to more attentively appreciate this balance of mutual integration and transformation. To experience, to feel that encounter, with the wonders and wisdom of the universe, with unintentional yet tacitly understanding.

我喜欢游走在时间垒砌的山川之间，阅读生灵与环境留下的微妙线索与痕迹。并试着通过创作去显现它们为我讲述的——连接着远古环境和可能未来的，由地球母语写就的模糊而迷人的记忆与故事。
在这些珍贵的相遇和契机之下，我不经常常设想：当归于名为人类世的地质层后，我们将留下怎样的痕迹？当后世的生命窥探往昔时，能否看到曾经的物种间存有着温柔的缠绵？
追随着演化事实和心灵直觉的吸引力，我感知并回应着那些与我产生交集的存在。通过凝视、倾听、触碰和描绘，我试图揭示出生物与环境间的缠绵，和绵延于物质间的生命性。于是创作成为了一种歌唱，使我回归孩子的状态。在嬉戏间展开的地貌中，吟咏生命经由这些晶体，汇聚并继续延展下去的歌谣。它让我得以轻盈地指向那处深邃，正如短暂的生命构筑了永恒。
每一件作品的诞生都如同一次物种发现。雕塑、影像、摄影、纸本、声音等一系列混合的媒介，成为了这些发现的感官证明。我希望当我们——我与你，以及更广泛的存在——一同在水与岩石、土地与空气、现实与梦境间穿行时，能够更细腻地体悟这份彼此交融并转化的平衡。去体验，去感受，那份同宇宙的奇迹与智慧，不经意间但心领神会地相遇。
