築牆練習 | Mending Wall, A Practice, 2019
過去幾年間，一度看似淡化的國界又逐漸地浮出，人們在世界各地用各種方式修築邊界，無論是透過國族的號召、法規的修訂或是實體的牆面。而這件作品是對這樣狀態的一種思考和回應。

Mending Wall，A Practice | 築牆練習, 2019
In the past few years, the once seemingly faded national boundaries began to emerge again. People have built boundaries in various ways around the world, whether they embody in the appeal of nations or ethnic groups, the revision of regulations or the physical wall. This exhibition is a reflection and response to such situation.

黃埔軍校開校訓詞被編寫成一首進行曲，藝術家將此曲中掌握集體節奏的大鼓鼓點鼓譜給抽離出來，以這些鼓點的相對位置來取代原先會面室隔間玻璃上的圓孔，並懸吊在室內固定吊掛旗幟的位置。
The opening speech of the Whampoa Military Academy was transcribed into a marching song. The artist separate the drum beats of the song which controls everyone’s pace, and use its position to drill the wholes on the partition glass in the reception room. The glass is hanged in the center of the room where flag usually hangs.

Sound Recording Along the Seashore ( A Proposal for Replacement of National Alarm)
12 minutes video, LED sceen
Size varies,
“沿海錄音（一個取代緊急警報的聲音提案）”是一個藝術家與友人共同在一座政治監獄小島上進行錄音的影像紀錄：希望記錄下這座島嶼的日常聲音——海浪、風雨與蟲鳴鳥叫——這些過去被監禁者在無比漫長的時間中日復一日的聲音記憶。這個錄音是一則用來取代警報聲的提案，希望這些聲音能成為歷史的一部分，並取代舊有的權力象徵，提出一種新的邊界的可能。
The video installation “Sound Recording Along the Seashore (A Proposal For Replacement of the National Emergency Alarm)” shows the video of the artist and his friend recording on a political prison island: the artist takes down the common voices of the island — of waves, wind, rain, insects and birds—the voice notes of those who have been imprisoned in the past for a long time. This recording is a proposal to replace the national alarm. The artist hopes that these sounds can become part of history and replace the former symbol of state in the efforts to propose the possibility of a new boundary.
