“The heart is constituted into a gift-object - whether ignored or rejected.” - A Lover’s Discourse - Fragments, Roland Barthes
I use porcelain, a tactile and strong, yet delicate and fragile material, along with a pulse of light, to manifest and to record the height, distance and beat of my own heart and the hearts of the people I love. Through depicting the rate and the physical distances of hearts, I take it as a metaphor to manifest emotional distances. No matter how hard it is, to be honest with each other in relationships, closeness, distance and the pulse between hearts portray emotions.

「心,是一種奉獻,可是這種奉獻不是被忽略就是被排斥。」 《戀人絮語》- 羅蘭巴特
我選擇以瓷泥這種既柔且剛卻又細膩脆弱的物料,配合光的脈搏,來呈現和記錄我和身邊所愛的人,心的高度、心的距離和心跳。借空間和心跳上的距離比喻情感上的距離。就如在關係上,即使如何盡力的對彼此坦誠,心間的高低遠近和心率反映岀各種情感。
