在年末的這段時間，我發現路邊開始很常出現被汰換與丟棄的傢俱，每每遇到被丟棄的沙發總會引起我的注意，因此我開始了這次的作品計畫。我開始每個晚上出門遊蕩，當遇見路邊的沙發時，我就會割下一塊方形，然後用我事先準備好的方形布料汰換上去填補我所割下來的空洞。經過許多個夜晚的累積而組合而成的這一大塊布料。

 

我藉由這件作品思考兩個面向：第一點是藝術家如何透過在城市中的遊蕩及不斷漫遊的過程，由城市提供的素材讓藝術家進行創作，藝術家又如何使用這些材料去與城市和居住其中的人們產生連結。第二點是關於沙發本身，沙發作為一個家庭、居所的常備傢俱，他自身帶有著空間的屬性、與人有長時間的相處與連結，不過他因為人們的遷移、汰換與更替而被丟棄，再被四處遊走的我所遭遇，這個遭遇就僅止一次，隔天、未來也再不復相見。

 

沙發作為在這個城市的家庭、人們所提供的物件，他本該是帶來安定，和不斷游移的我處與相反的狀態，我們相遇的背後是人們的流動與更替。這些沙發他們作為不會再被使用的物件而言，代表著一個個於城市中流動的人們，我將他們縫合起來，將這些互不相識的人們、他們的使用痕跡、以及他們在這個城市中的狀態密合在一起。

During the end of the year, I noticed that discarded furniture was appearing frequently on the streets. Whenever I came across an abandoned sofa, it caught my attention. Thus, I began this project. Every evening, I went out wandering the streets. Whenever I found a sofa on the roadside, I would cut out a square piece, replace it with a square fabric that I had prepared beforehand, and fill the gap created by my cutting. 

 

Through this project, I pondered two aspects. The first was how an artist could use the materials provided by the city to create art through wandering and exploring the city. Also, how artists could use these materials to connect with the city and the people living in it. The second aspect was about the sofa itself. As a common piece of furniture in homes, it possessed spatial attributes and had a long history of association with people. However, it was discarded due to people's migration and replacement, and encountered by someone like me who was wandering around. This encounter was only a one-time occurrence, and we would never meet again in the future.

 

The sofa, as an object provided by families and people in this city, should have brought stability. However, as I wandered around, I was in the opposite state of constant mobility. Behind our encounters was the mobility and replacement of people. As objects that will no longer be used, these sofas represent the people who flow through the city. I stitched them together, binding these strangers, their traces of use, and their status in this city together.
