My work, "Rebirth," is an in-depth analysis of the life process. As an artist, I wish to use the power of art to encourage people to think seriously about environmental, social, and cultural concerns.

I picked recycled materials for "Rebirth" because I wanted to draw everyone's attention to resource reuse. In this period of fast progress, we are often perplexed by the abundance in front of us and overlook the seemingly trivial details around us. However, these commonplace items have the ability to transform the world.

In my art, I aim to portray the rebirth of beauty and trash, along with the irreversible environmental destruction resulting from people's excessive consumption habits. I intend to use this visual aspect to persuade people to consider the peaceful coexistence of man and environment. At what point do we cease destroying? When do we begin to modify our way of life? These have always concerned me, and they are also the driving forces behind my art.

The Artivive App allows visitors to gain a thorough grasp of the creative thoughts underlying the works. I hope you may experience the metamorphosis of waste into beauty and get insight from it. "Rebirth" is not just a piece of art but also a reflection of our excessive consumerism and careless lifestyle. Let's investigate the rebirth process of beauty and waste together, get inspiration from it, and collaborate to create a better tomorrow. I hope that my work can be a catalyst for change, causing people to focus on environmental devastation and take steps to live a more sustainable lifestyle and become a collective protector of the earth.

The artwork is made up of three components. The first section features jewellery created from aluminum cans, which represents the transformation of garbage into beautiful art and promotes resource reuse. The second component is a painting that can be scanned using the Artivive app to demonstrate the transformation process using augmented reality, emphasizing the convergence of art and technology and improving the audience's grasp of the underlying message. The third component is a massive flower pot with an embedded unlimited space filled with waste, symbolizing the endless expansion of the trash problem. The artist asks visitors to examine and think about their role in environmental damage. These three components work together to portray the idea of "rebirth" in terms of environmental protection and sustainable development, encouraging viewers to pay attention to environmental issues and ad- just their lifestyles for a greener, more sustainable future. This artwork, through creativity and interactivity, strives to raise awareness and encourage action to address environmental concerns.

《轉生》這件作品,是我對生命歷程的深度探索。作為一個藝術創作 者,我希望能透過藝術的力量,引發人們對環境、社會和文化等議題的 深入思考。

我選擇使用回收物料來創作《轉生》,是想喚起大家對資源再利用的重 視。在這個飛速發展的時代,我們容易被眼前的繁華所迷惑,忽略了身 邊看似微不足道的小事物。然而,這些普通物品卻蘊藏著改變世界的力 量。

在作品中,我試圖勾勒出美與垃圾轉生的過程,以及人們過度消費習慣 對大自然造成的不可逆轉破壞。我希望藉此視覺元素,激發人們對人與 自然和諧共存的反思。我們究竟到了什麼地步才會停止破壞?又從何 時開始改變自己的生活方式?這些一直困擾著我,也是我創作的核心動 機。

透過Artivive App,觀者可以深入了解作品背後的創作理念。我希望 您能感受到垃圾與美的蛻變,並從中汲取智慧。《轉生》不僅是件藝術 品,更是一面鏡子,反映出我們過度消費、不負責任的生活方式。

讓我們一起探索美與垃圾的轉生過程,從中吸取啟示,共同譜寫一個更 加美好的明天。我希望這件作品能成為一股改變的力量,喚醒人們對環 境破壞作反思,並付諸行動,過上更加永續的生活。

《轉生》成為我們通往自我和社會覺醒的催化劑,讓每個人都成為這個 世界的共同守護者。

作品包含三個部分：第一個部分是用鋁罐製造的首飾，這象徵著將廢棄物轉化為美麗的藝術品，並呼籲人們關注資源的再利用。第二個部分是圖畫，觀眾可以使用Artivive應用程序掃描畫作，透過虛擬實境體驗來展示轉化的過程，這展示了藝術和科技的結合，並加深了觀眾對作品背後信息的理解。第三個部分是一個巨型大花盆：活動的花代表了大自然，而裝置內嵌入了一個垃圾的無限空間，這象徵著垃圾問題的無限擴展，藝術家鼓勵觀眾去觀看和反思自己對環境的破壞。這三個部分共同展示了作品《Rebirth》對環保和可持續發展的主題，呼籲觀眾關注環境問題並改變生活方式，實現綠色和可持續的未來。這個作品通過創意和互動性，希望喚行起觀眾的意識，鼓勵人們環境問題作出行動。
