迴
2011 桃園國際機場第二期航站區入口意象 桃園，台灣 《迴》的古字形同「回」，狀如雲霧，環轉的造型牽引著飛機起飛／降落的瞬間姿態，既是舞動的開始，也是完美的句點。願能以中文特殊的象形特色，與作品的造形共同演繹。作品以與飛機相同的鑄鋁合金材質緊扣航空元素，圓形環轉的概念擬倣繞行地球總共360°的經度，起點即是終點，造形錯落於最初昂揚之處，彷彿是在訴說旅程往返的本質皆不過如此，由內至外，再由外而內，傳達著透析旅行的終極思考，即一來一往之間形成完滿的圓形，如同對著天空中無數飛行的旅人們，傳達衷心的祝福。 |

The Loop
2011 Terminal 2, Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport
Taoyuan, Taiwan
The Chinese character resembles the shape of a loop. Just like clouds and mist, the loop emphasizes the very moment of take off and landing of aircrafts. It marks the beginning and perfect conclusion of motion. The work utilizes the pictorial qualities of the Chinese character in its design. The work is constructed from the same cast aluminum alloy materials used for aircraft in order to tie in with the element of aviation. The circular loop is a simulation of Earth’s longitude in 360° , where the starting point would also be the destination. The work is essentially a line arranged in a loop with an intersecting point, symbolizing the very essence of embarking and returning from a journey. As one moves from inward to outward along the line and traverses from the opposite direction, the direction of opposing movement reveals the ultimate contemplation for the meaning of “travel” as it forms a perfect circle, representing a heartfelt blessing for the countless travelers flying in the skies.
