Self-eating – spring, summer, autumn, winter (2021)

人類居於食物鏈頂端,正無可避免地將自身所創造的塑膠微粒和粉末吃下肚。本系列以取自自然的媒材―陶作食器為形式。以瓷土拉坏成形,碗底維持約2mm-3mm之薄片進行素燒(800度),以海洋為意象,以半透藍色銅釉為釉色進行釉燒(1230度)。搭配3D列印燈光臺座、LED陣列光色控制,以及海廢微粒貼合,分別以四個碗呈現春、夏、秋、冬四種燈光變化意向,象徵人類自食惡果之循環。

As humans sit atop the food chain, they inevitably consume the plastic micro-particles and powder they have created. This series takes the form of pottery crafted from materials sourced in nature. The ceramics are molded from porcelain clay, maintaining a thin layer of about 2mm-3mm at the bottom of the bowl and subjected to bisque firing at 800 degrees. Inspired by the ocean, they are glazed with a semi-transparent blue copper glaze and fired at 1230 degrees. Paired with 3D-printed light bases, LED arrays, and the incorporation of ocean waste micro-particles, four bowls are presented, each representing the intention of changing lighting in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. This symbolism reflects the cycle of humans consuming the consequences of their actions.
