In the digital age, artificial intelligence (AI) has profoundly influenced our self-perception and identity construction. "Perfect Reformation" aims to explore how technology changes our understanding of our "true self" and reveals whether we are losing our individual uniqueness and autonomy in the pursuit of a perfect image.
By submitting my personal ID photos to AI for reconstruction multiple times, I observed that the generated images were significantly different from the original photos each time. These images reflect how AI reshapes the human face based on society's aesthetic standards, blurring the line between real and fake. Even more challenging is, is this "perfect" image actually more valuable than your true self?
My work is centered around holographic projections and multi-layered digital images, gradually deforming and reconstructing AI-generated faces to present the fluidity and instability of identity. Combined with immersive sound design, the audience will be brought into a space where technology and humanity are intertwined to feel the tension between virtuality and reality.
在數位時代，人工智能（AI）深刻地影響了我們的自我認知和身份建構。《完美重塑》旨在探索科技如何改變我們對於"真實自我"的理解，並揭示在追求完美形象的過程中，我們是否正在失去個體的獨特性與自主性。
透過多次將個人證件照片提交給AI進行重構，我觀察到每次生成的影像都與原始照片有著顯著的差異。這些影像反映了AI如何基於社會審美標準重塑人類的面貌，從而模糊了真與假的界限。更具挑戰性的是，這種"完美"的形象是否真的比真實的自我更有價值？
以全息投影和多層次的數位影像為核心，將AI生成的面孔逐步變形與重構，呈現出身份認同的流動性與不穩定性。結合沉浸式的聲音設計，觀眾將被帶入一個科技與人性交織的空間，去感受虛擬與現實之間的張力。
當科技逐漸干預我們的形象和行為時，"真實的我"是否仍然存在？
在數位世界中，我們的身份是否已經變得可以被修改、重塑甚至商品化？
- 我們是否正在忽略那些來自內心深處的獨特魅力，以交換社會定義的"完美"形象？
《完美重塑》不僅是一件藝術作品，更是一面反思的鏡子。它邀請觀眾重新審視科技對人類身份的影響，並鼓勵我們在虛擬與現實之間找到一個平衡，去擁抱不完美的真實自我。

The name “Wu Lian” is the source of my creative inspiration and artistic theme, symbolizing a person’s understanding and awakening deep in his heart, thereby walking out of the difficulties and obstacles in life and maintaining inner purity and tranquility. As a flower with tenacious vitality, the lotus can still show its noble and untainted qualities even when growing in a muddy pond. This spirit and willpower are worth learning from and drawing lessons from. My work aims to convey this inner peace and tranquility through installation, guiding the audience to free themselves from external temptations and interference, and to understand and explore the true nature of their own hearts. At the same time, I also hope to convey a deep humanistic care and the power of life through my creations, and inspire people to maintain a positive attitude and quality in their daily lives.
「悟蓮」（Wu Lian）這個名字作為我的創作靈感來源和藝術主題，象徵著一個人在內心深處領悟和覺醒，從而走出人生的艱難險阻，保持內心的純淨和寧靜。蓮花作為一種生命力頑強的花卉，即使生長在泥濘的池塘中，仍然能夠展現出高潔、不染的品質，這種精神和意志力值得我們學習和借鑒。 我的作品旨在通 裝置傳達這種內心的清淨和寧靜，引導觀眾從外在的誘惑和乾擾中解脫出來，領悟和探索自己內心的真實本質。同時，我也希望透過自己的創作，傳遞出一種深度的人文關懷和生命的力量，啟迪人們在日常生活中保持一種積極向上的態度和品質。

“Left Something Behind” This short video tells the story of someone burdened by the weight of life, feeling only sadness and loneliness as they reminisce about the past. Flipping through old photographs, they see a version of themselves who once loved life passionately. In their dreams, they forget all their troubles and truly become themselves again, recalling moments spent with loved ones under the sunshine. However, upon waking up, they realize the painful return to reality. The purpose of filming this story is to address the common experience of being unable to let go of certain people or events. Through cinematography, editing techniques, lighting, and color grading, I aimed to depict the character’s emotions, juxtaposing the feeling of loss in reality with the happiness of dreams. Moreover, I hope to provoke reflection among viewers on unresolved memories and trauma.
