Sailing in Silent Companionship
孤舟伴航

2025 | Ink, colour, copper and silver leaf on paper | 101 x 80 cm 

作品描繪了一座橫跨紙邊的島嶼,將兩艘來自不同地方的船隻分隔開來,探討生命中的孤獨與共鳴。圖中的貨船互不相識,各自承載著故鄉的回憶,展開一段尋找歸屬的旅程。船隻排放的煙霧將用銀箔處理,隨著時間的推移,煙霧在空氣中逐漸氧化,形成獨特的光澤,這不僅增強了時間流逝的效果,也提醒我們每一刻的經歷如何在不斷流逝中塑造我們的記憶和身份。

儘管這兩艘船隻來自不同的地方,但它們面對著同樣的海洋和浪花。在這片共同的水域中,煙霧在空中交織,彷彿在建立起一種無形的聯繫。在各自的生命探索中,雖然個人看似孤獨,但在這個共同的世界裏面對類似的挑戰與困難,聯繫卻始終存在,展現出人與人之間的共鳴與理解。

The artwork depicts an island spanning the edge of the paper, separating two boats from different places, exploring the themes of solitude and resonance in life. The cargo vessels in the image are unfamiliar with each other, each carrying memories of their homeland, embarking on a journey to find belonging. The smoke emitted by the boats will be treated with silver foil, and over time, it will gradually oxidise in the air, forming a unique lustre. This not only enhances the effect of time passing but also reminds us how each moment of experience shapes our memories and identities in the continuous flow of time.

Although these two boats come from different places, they face the same ocean and waves. In this shared body of water, the smoke intertwines in the air, as if establishing an invisible connection. In their explorations of life, while one may seem lonely, this connection remains in the shared world, showcasing the resonance and understanding between people as they confront similar challenges and difficulties.
