Community Bulletin Board II ：視閾現象 ( Ver. Artificial Ground )

被快速、規格地裝飾各種人造飾物的金錢樹，如同一個罐頭生產線，我們透過某種符號標籤、人造物，試圖將有機物在視覺上標準化。連接資訊龐雜的現下，網路與新科技改變了生活模式也加快資訊出產的步調，而我們也正試圖複製、規格一切，同樣的空間感，相似的植物使用方式…等一窩蜂的追求行為，這些均值的產物呼應著世代資本迅疾的累積。

藝術家以花藝的視角持續關注植物與有機物被冀望的樣貌，並從中探索彼此的交互關係及其背後隱含的議題。作品Community Bulletin Board II ，將人造物與植物、有機物的位置調換，並用緩慢的速度反向對應著“金錢樹”快速的製作形式。而暗示商品意涵的懸掛物組合成一巨大的裝置量體，試圖從不同的平均狀態探索資本、性別、中西方或區域文化的議題，而上頭被平均分佈的植物則是一則事件、一個資訊元，整體被與龐大的資訊欉比擬著，投射出群集世代人際網路的「社區公佈欄」。

Artist redefine forms of plants with views of florist, and try to find out the connection between human beings and plants meanwhile discuss those under issues of our society. Community Bulletin Board II slowly reverses the quickly process of Jīn-qián Shu and exchange the position of man-made objects and organic plants also. The giant structure and hanging objects which are hint to capitalism are try to explore capital, gender, east/west cultural issues from different point of views, and every single plant which was average arrange is represent an accident or a data, all the things in this works would like a huge database.
