融合神奇寶貝伽勒爾小火馬與東方靈性意象，透過夢幻般的雕刻語言，打造一場關於療癒與心靈守護的奇幻旅程。伽勒爾小火馬以獨角獸般的純淨形象，象徵夢境與自然之靈的聯繫，成為孩童夢境中的靈獸護守者。

沉睡的孩童頭戴小火馬造型頭飾，與靈獸同眠，表現出人與自然無言但深刻的共感關係。此畫面寓意著靈魂的修復、心靈的平靜，也延續原住民族與自然萬物之間「萬物有靈」的信仰精神。

作品以自然木紋為基底，配合柔和的粉紫與青綠色調，呼應伽勒爾小火馬夢幻、靜謐的特質。雕刻表面刻劃，層層堆疊如同夢境之波，引領觀者沉入一段與心靈對話的旅程。

Forest Spirit: Galar blends the fantastical imagery of Galarian Ponyta from Pokémon with Eastern spiritual symbolism, creating a dreamlike sculptural language that evokes themes of healing and inner guardianship. The Galarian Ponyta, portrayed as a unicorn-like being of purity, symbolizes the link between dreamscapes and nature spirits—an ethereal protector within the dreams of children.

At the heart of the piece, a sleeping child wears a headpiece styled after Ponyta, resting beside the gentle creature. This moment of quiet coexistence speaks to a profound, unspoken empathy between humans and nature. It also reflects the animistic beliefs found in Indigenous Taiwanese cultures, where all beings possess spirit and meaning.

The sculpture embraces the natural grain of camphor wood, enhanced by soft hues of lilac and green that echo the mystical, tranquil qualities of Galarian Ponyta. Layered carvings across the surface ripple like waves of a dream, guiding the viewer into a meditative journey—an intimate dialogue with the soul.
