Artist Statement 藝術家自述

My enthusiasm for art originates from my practice of punch needling and hand embroidery as mediums. Using needle, yarn and thread, I explore the close bond between individuals and objects, transforming everyday scenes and mindsets into durable resilient embroidered images. I craft tender feelings, illustrating the stillness of life. These layered fiber act as both a personal shield and a soft counter to external complexities. I reinterpret ordinary objects and leave the contours of memories on fabric, creating a subtle tension between the familiar and the unfamiliar in the interplay of threads or yarn. My creations bring daily occurrences to light within the repetitive texture of needlecraft—those overlooked fragments of life, quiet sentiments. Every loop in the process holds a narrative, enabling me to uncover new perspectives through repeated motions and sense how art transforms the mundane into the eternal.

我對藝術的熱情源於以戳繡(俄羅斯刺繡)和刺繡為媒介的創作實踐。透過針線，我探尋人與物之間親密的羈絆，將日常場景與心境轉化為堅韌耐久的刺繡圖像。我編織溫柔的情感，描繪生命的靜謐，這些層疊的纖維既是個人護盾，亦是對外在紛擾的柔軟回應。我重塑平凡物件的意義，在布料上留下記憶的輪廓，讓熟悉與陌生在紗線交錯間產生微妙的張力。作品在重複的針腳肌理中顯現日常——那些被忽略的生活碎片、寂靜的情緒，每一處線圈都蘊藏敘事，讓我在反覆動作中發現新的視角，感知藝術如何將平凡化為永恆。
