自然而然

你有沒有想過我們如何將自己與自然環境區分開來的？為了尋求庇護、保持清潔並在生活在人造建築的社會結構中，許多的我們不再進入野外採集、覓食與自然共生。現代的社會使用語言與概念來創建分類，分離了人的感知與知識體系，鼓勵著自然與人類世界有所區別的信念。事實上我們都屬於自然過程的一部分，藝術家透過採集在地的植物之葉片與樹枝進行人形體的建構，試圖以此行動和形象來重新討論人造與自然的模糊邊界，重新思考人類與自然的依存關係。

Have you ever wondered about how we humans separate ourselves from the natural environment? We do so as a means to seek shelter, stay clean, and engage with one another in built environments. Many of us never enter wild areas, or forage for food any longer. We exist in constructed structures, preferring to think of nature as something separate to us.

In city based contemporary societies, languages and ideas are unconsciously used to create classifications, which sets human perceptions apart from knowledge systems, and encourages us to believe that nature and the human world are separated. And yet it’s an inescapable fact that human beings are simply part of nature and its processes. The artist gathers leaves and branches of local plants to construct the form of figures, thus engaging the public in discussing the blurred boundary between human-made and the natural via this action and to acknowledge the requirement to live harmoniously with nature.
