在林中，50x70厘米，亚麻布油画，2023年
"In the Woods" articulates a complex inquiry into the concept of identity, inspired by an introspective visit to a park coupled with a fascination for the interplay of light and shadows. This piece delves into the essence of identity: what elements construct it? What aspects remain untouched by it? Moreover, it questions the fundamental necessity of identity for an individual. Within the context of the forest, there is an overt appearance of homogeneity and harmony, prompting an examination of the authenticity of this uniformity. The work probes whether, beneath this surface of apparent conformity, there exists a chaos analogous to that found in societal structures, challenging us to reconsider our perceptions of order and identity.
《林中》深入探讨了身份的复杂概念，灵感来源于一次内省的公园之旅以及对光与影交错的迷恋。此作品探究身份的本质：构成身份的要素有哪些？哪些方面未被身份触及？更进一步，它质疑了身份对个体的根本必要性。在森林的背景下，表面上显现出一种同质性和和谐，促使人们审视这种一致性的真实性。该作品探讨，在这种表面的一致性之下，是否存在着类似于社会结构中发现的混乱，挑战我们重新思考关于秩序和身份的看法。
