Lightyears

一天完成拍攝一台傳統135底片的即可拍， 持續紀錄一年共365台相機、9855張底片。所有底片存放於相機中，直到創作者死亡，才可由他者沖洗成為照片。按下快門時閃光的瞬間，象徵著死亡的剎那；用以紀錄的底片­，封存於相機黑盒子內。拍照當下的記憶隨著時間慢慢模糊遺忘，直到實質的生命本體消逝，塵封於記憶黑盒子的底片才得以透過他者之眼揭示。
此作品試圖探討記憶與生命的消融。穿過生命與死亡的盡頭/鏡頭，重新去觀看存在的本質。因，唯有死亡，才能彰顯真理。

One 135mm disposable camera per day. 9855 films taken. 365 cameras accumulated over one year. All the films are meant to remain untouched in the camera until the day of the death of the artist, and then to be unveiled by an unknown other. The camera's blinking flash resembles the moment of death. While being sealed in the black boxes, fragmented memories become a blur as time goes by. Until the substance of life fades away, the films in these dust-laden black boxes are rediscovered through the eye of others.

The work explores the intertwined journey of memory and life. Passing through the ends/lens of life and death, a reexamination of the essence of being is made possible, as truth manifests itself only through death.
