221105 · Skogskyrkogården: All Saints' Day
My third time visiting the Woodland Cemetery, and it filled me with a quiet, indescribable sense of peace and joy. It was almost feeling like I've found a touch of life's meaning here. I love how delicately space handles the relationship between nature, the departed, and the living, especially the landscape, where every single tree feels like it has its own unique life.
I still remember during my first visit, seeing a man sitting in a camping chair he brought himself, quietly reading while keeping company with a loved one who was no longer there. Perhaps this is the difference between East and West: viewing death as a natural part of the life cycle and coexisting with it gently and naturally.
三訪林地公墓,感受到平靜的愉悅感,很難用語言去形容,甚至覺得在這裡找到了某種生命的意義。我很喜歡這裡對待自然、亡者與生者關係的細膩處理,特別是景觀,彷彿每棵樹都擁有獨特的生命。
還記得第一次來的時候,看到一位男士坐在自己帶來的露營椅上閱讀,靜靜陪伴著不在場的摯親。或許這就是東西方的差異吧,將死亡視作生命週期的一部分,溫柔坦然地共處。

First time doing casting, and I made a candle holder. There was something strangely grounding about watching the liquid material set and finally pulling off the mold.
第一次嘗試灌模,當液態的材質緩緩凝固、脫模的那一刻,有種奇妙的踏實感。
221008 · Stockholm Craft Week: Liquid Feast by OBS
Participating in Liquid Feast by OBS—a multidisciplinary collective of Konstfack alumni during Stockholm Craft Week was an immersive experience blending textiles, ceramics, and food.
Sharing the table with strangers, the setup totally changed how we think about dining objects: a wooden installation served as a vertical table, while fabric on the ceiling doubled as a tablecloth hanging with colorful food. Dining went beyond everyday sustenance into a medium for communication and aesthetic expression. Because food wasn't traditionally served—following the notion that "you earn what you get"—waiting for your meal naturally started conversations with unknown participants. The experience carried an imperfect yet experimental feel to it, using food as a bridge to reconnect us with everyday objects and contemporary craft imbued with handcrafted warmth and critical thinking.
參與了由 Konstfack 校友組成的跨領域團隊 OBS在 Stockholm Craft Week 帶來的《Liquid Feast》。這是一場結合織品、陶器與飲食的沉浸式體驗。
與陌生人同桌共食,這樣的配置徹底改變了我們對餐具與用餐物件的想像:木製裝置像是一張垂直的餐桌,而天花板上的布則化為桌巾,懸掛著繽紛的食物。飲食超越了日常,且轉化為溝通與美學的媒介。因為食物並不是被端上桌,且秉持著「付出多少、收穫多少」的踏實感,在等待餐點的過程中,自然而然地與身旁不認識的參與者開啟了對話。整場體驗帶有一種不完美卻充滿實驗性的質感,透過食物作為橋樑,重新連結了我們與日常物件的關係,以及那份注入了手作溫度與批判思維的當代工藝。
220918 · First Impressions of Artipelag: Essence-Eksistence by Anselm Kiefer
My first visit to Artipelag was utterly striking, as Kiefer’s works engaged in an epic dialogue with the space. Nestled within the forests and rocks of the Stockholm archipelago, the museum's exposed concrete, massive windows, and natural surroundings perfectly matched the gritty aesthetics of his earth, lead, and ruins. Standing before Palm Sunday in the soaring space, surrounded by towering palms and piles of mud-bricks, a heavy yet breathtaking power emerged. It was a profound reminder of how spatial scale and raw materials carry history and memory, creating a quiet, desolate yet sacred tension that lingered long after.
第一次來到 Artipelag 便被 Anselm Kiefer 的展覽震懾,作品與清水混凝土、大片玻璃窗及群島自然交織出史詩般的對話,完美契合其泥土與廢墟的粗獷美學。特別是面對《聖枝主日》,佇立在挑高空間的巨型棕櫚樹與泥磚前,那股沉重而震撼的力量,深深感受到空間尺度與原始材質如何承載歷史,在寂靜中蔓延成久久不散的神聖張力。
