Cage Bridges, 2021
Video Sculpture, 42min

「籠橋」是一組懸浮於黑暗空間中的流動影像裝置。
作品運用狹縫攝影技術,將城中那些被鐵網包覆的行人天橋,由外向內翻轉,化為一座不斷延伸的鐵籠。那些曾以鐵網保護的地方,如今被反噬成籠中物。
她——碰不得。
在騷動不安的時代裡,她的氣息早已凝結於鐵籠的縫隙之間。
靜止而無聲,如同被安放於棺中的光。
或許,這正象徵著一個時代的終結。

“Cage Bridges" is a moving image installation suspended in darkness.
Using the technique of slit-scan photography, the work turns the city’s pedestrian bridges—once enclosed by iron fences—inside out, transforming them into an endlessly extending cage.
What was meant to protect now imprisons. Those places once shielded are now devoured by their own enclosures.
In this restless and uneasy era, an untouchable breath has solidified between the seams of the iron.
It lies silent and motionless, like a light laid to rest within a coffin.
Perhaps this signifies the end of an era.
