創作理念

在開始觸摸土前，我會以大量文字書寫思緒，包含想法、感受、造型、環境等，一層層撥開作品，這是在理解作品和我自己的過程。於是在我摸到土時，我跟土之間的合作便開始了，我們會共同創作作品，在拉扯和堆疊中，一起找到作品的平衡。

CREATIVE CONCEPT

Before I begin working with clay, I write down my thoughts extensively, including ideas, emotions, forms, and environments, peeling back the layers of the work. This is a process of understanding both the piece and myself. When I finally touch the clay, the collaboration between me and the clay begins. Together, we create the piece, finding balance through the pulling and stacking process.
