I Shall Explain in Simple Words (2020)
關於「痕」與「影」
二〇一九年秋，我迷上摺紙。十來公分正方形紙張，沒有轉圜餘地。（我要求自己，不可用剪刀作弊。）點擊串流而來的各式教學影片，我摺出許多幼稚的小東西。為了滅跡，我將摺紙一張張攤開、還原。
不論過程曲折、反覆、無聊、還是偶有驚喜，我為它們只成了摺痕，逐一拍照。
光掠過山，影沉降谷。深度就在表面。它們最後成為一張一張的紙。中年危機發作時的自問自答。一本日記。
On Folds and Shadows
In the fall of 2019, I became obsessed with origami. Ten-centimeter squares of paper, no room for compromise. (I forbade myself scissors.) Guided by an endless stream of online tutorials, I folded many childish little things. Then, to erase my traces, I unfolded each one, piece by piece.
No matter how tedious, repetitive, twisted, or surprisingly delightful the process was, I photographed the creases they left behind.
Light grazes “mountains;” shadow sinks into “valleys.” Depth lies on the surface. They became sheets of paper — quiet answers to questions I asked during a midlife crisis.
A diary.
