Antiquities are like the containers of time. They seem to carry the ancient magic, bringing us human history, culture and legacy transcending beyond space and time. The nostalgic objects will also become antiquities at some point as time goes by. Just like a time machine, it will show our posterity how our lives and culture look like.
Base on these thoughts, I depicted the sparrow we see in everyday life, the rooster graphic on the Chinese crockery in the old day, and the image of ancient bronze ware, framed with the nostalgic patterned glass. The work itself shows a dreamlike imagination on time and antiquities.

古物常給我一種時光容器的感覺,彷彿帶著古老的魔法,把人類的歷史、文化、精神跨越時間、空間,傳達遠方。而懷舊事物在若干年後,也許亦能在時光浸泡下蘊釀成更具價值與意義的古物,像時光機一樣,在我們身後的年月裡似遠若近地活現我們曾經熟悉卻淡忘了的生活痕跡。
作品基於這些想像,以日常所見的麻雀、老瓷器上的公雞圖案、古青銅器物、與懷舊壓花玻璃的組合,譜一段在時空中追尋的白日夢小劇場。
