Moss Portrait

 

Rain dissolve the white on surface, the mountains, trees, grasses, wood, mosses, in naked, soft rebreath, that’s my hometown’s color all the time staying around, after covered by snow, found that I never cherished it as now I am. under the extreme silent place, hearing and seeing become clear. being as human, trying to learn from the insignificant existences; from the moss catches on the top without real root, no soil could serve them water and nutrition, relatively harmless, overlooked easily, less light; from the state of tangle which not intend to snatch away from others. its teach you be low desire life, only use when you need.

 

 

 

* 'Unique substance sensibility': used paper (dirty, old, damaged), clay (poop, fertilizer, impurities,  impure), moss (indoor, leakage, less light, outdoor, shady, shadow, shading), wrinkle (human, old, stone seam, uncut plant and tree)

  

 

苔蘚肖像

 

雨,融化了附著在表面的白色,看山樹草木青苔,赤裸地脫去一致外衣,本來凍結在冰庫裡的那些,再次柔軟呼吸,新鮮的空氣,那是一直都裸露在家鄉的顏色,被雪覆蓋與融解後不曾感到如此珍惜。在這寂靜地方,聽覺與眼界變得清晰,生為人我試著向渺小的存在、向不同形態與生存環境的苔蘚學習;向那依附在表面、不具有真正的根、沒有土壤可提供水分與營養、比較無害的、容易被忽視、沒什麼光、不奪取的纏結狀態學習。它要我慾望越低的存在,需要的時候才使用。

 

 

*「獨特的物質感性」:用過的紙(髒污、老舊、破損)、土(糞、肥料、雜質、不純的)、青苔(室內、漏水、光線不充足、室外、陰暗處、影子、遮光)、皺紋(人的、老的、石縫、未經修剪的樹木與植物)
