回 Soul

2023

 

Glass

 

5cm x 3cm x 10cm, 5cm x 3cm x 5cm, 4cm x 3cm x 8cm

 

“回” 這個字/作品構成了兩個空間 ——— 軀殼與靈魂。人的靈魂與玻璃一樣:易碎,在燒製的過程中容易因外在環境的變化而碎裂。身軀能隨時日膨脹,靈魂卻是以雕琢的方式塑成。

 

In “回” this piece, glass is split into two spaces —— body and soul. Our souls are like glass: fragile, and easy to shatter due to the changes of surroundings. Bodies grow and expand while souls can only be crafted.
