Title: Colors
text, color, light, 2020
The artist created texts which used different colors in different parts of the artwork and areas to translate into “colors” through the network data. Then “colors” are presented in the exhibition in the form of “lights.” The texts come from “text= ‘Hello World’.” The artist created several viewings of “text= ‘Hello World’” from the different viewing angles in the exhibition. The texts were translated into colors through Google Images API to collect the images searched by the texts on the Internet. It adopted the Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) method to use these images data to conduct sampling/analysis/recombination based on colors, and then generated the texts with colors. The colors are presented in accordance with exhibition conditions. It used glass, the main building materials of the Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts, as the medium to present colors. Through the exhibition lights and the projection lights, it can be flexibly matched with other artworks and the exhibition space. At the same time, it provides immersive experience while viewing the artwork and reading the texts.

Title: Sound Medium
steel wire, LED lights, sensors, woods, iron, 2020
The conversion and transformation of delivering messages are invisible traces in life. The “daily interpersonal relationship” that connects people with one another, which is activated at any time during the day and night. In this installation, we try to convert an unseen signal scene into a visible landscape, transforming the invisible sounds to the tangible lights and then to the kinetic energy to separate the spaces. The artwork has two expressions. One is used as a part of space planning to guide the visitors to the directions of exhibition, and the other is to reproduce the close invisible relationship between two points by using sounds and lights instead of the body to visit throughout the museum.

作品名稱：虛擬彌賽雅
自動化演奏鋼琴、機械手臂懸偶、扭蛋機、動態影像、糖果, 2020
天上要有光體、可分晝夜，做記號、定節令、日子、年歲，並要發光在天空，普照在地上，事就這樣成了（創世紀1:14-1:15）
《虛擬彌賽雅》是一個系統化的影像演繹裝置，透過自動化演奏鋼琴、動力布偶、影像、玩具扭蛋機等形式，試圖重新轉譯與解構關於：在人類之外，或是人類有限生命中，對於超越時空間等生命形式的提問。內容中從肉身、慾望、控制、疾病、信仰、時空間等角度去討論，何謂造物？或為何造物？啟示帶給人類的是救贖還是另一個龐大慾望的開始？

Title: messages, Yet to Lose
LED lights, wood, electronic components, 2020
Traces flowing within a space is like various forms of messages carried by the surface of black hole. If the material world argued in quantum physics is the hologram of the mental world, then the transitional square or Non-place entering the space within the Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts, library and the research building will then be something to entangle. Was it the mirror universe incessantly exchanging messages with the material world we are in? Or was it the origin of messages from the hologram of consciousness coming from the mental world of the artist? The work will see the average space of the square as light messages projected from the white hole. Message, Yet to Lose attempts to present conversation regarding material and energy with its surrounding, and further provides extended alternative view on reality and illusion to its audiences.

Title: Perfect Form
metal, plastic, mechanical components, electronic control components (composite medium), 2020
In the 20th century, physicists conducted the “double-slit experiment with electrons.” This experiment caused a great sensation in the scientific community. In order to explain the experimental results, people had to re-examine the elements that have been neglected in scientific research for thousands of years. ‘Consciousness,” therefore, can be inferred that it does affect objective facts, and this relationship seems to explain the inertia of “consciousness” and the “material world.” Based on current models such as mathematics (golden ratio), aesthetics, color psychology, etc., the artwork corresponds to the mutual mechanism of “form” and “consciousness,” trying to produce “form” through “theory” and discussing the feasibility of “perfect form.”

Title: 1.5 Billion Light-years Away
ready-made objects, plastic sheets, plastic tubes, self-made inflation and deflation devices, LED lights, 2020
Astronomers received a Fast Radio Burst from 1.5 billion light-years away, which is believed to be a signal from aliens. Has the unknown information ever been received and read during the endless journey and passing place? In contrast to the universe, the scale of human life is extremely short, and the knowledge and understanding outside the sky are relatively tiny, as if in a huge darkness, following the dim lights to outline the distant landscape, the starting point of the imaginary signal which is from the far distance humans can't reach.
