模型：一起發生

 我們如何感知土地的脈動？是從觀察動植物的行為軌跡，從中尋找土地活動的跡象，或者從人與土地互動的經驗的語言描述來感知，又或者土地發生震動時，透過感受土地的活動來察覺脈動？不論是何種方式，都是與土地緊密連結的方式，並存著安全與不安全的雙重狀態，以及與自然之間，（不）安穩與（不）確定性的持續震動。作品中，以「模型」為概念，呈現多重感知土地的方式的展現，形成複雜的連結關係，同時作品企圖從前兆與尚未發生之間，來探索人與自然的關係，並從當下來思考人與自然共生狀態的更多可能性。



Model:
Simultaneous Happening

How do we perceive the pulse of the land? Is it through observing the behavioral traces of flora and fauna, searching for signs of land activity, or understanding through language the experiences of interaction between people and the land? Perhaps it's by sensing the land's movements during tremors to perceive its pulse? Regardless of the method, each is a closely linked way of connecting with the land, existing in a dual state of safety and insecurity. The work explores the continual oscillation between (in)security and (un)certainty in the interaction with nature.

In the artwork, the concept of "model" is employed to present a multifaceted representation of perceiving the land, forming complex connections. Simultaneously, the piece attempts to explore the relationship between humans and nature, delving into the space between omens and the yet-to-occur. It aims to contemplate more possibilities for the coexistence of humans and nature from the present moment.

作品中的聲音並非真實動物的鳴叫聲，而是由崁頂部落的馬提亞所模仿的動物聲音。他提及在模仿過程中，需要花大量的時間觀察、等待、不斷地調整，直到他所模仿的聲音不會讓動物離開，甚至在採集聲音過程，也引來了鳥類的靠近，當時就對於動物與他之間遠離及靠近的過程、差異的性質產生了興趣，並非只是聲音相似、模仿，而是探索聲音背後的東西。

The sounds in the artwork are not actual calls of real animals but rather imitations created by Matia from the Kanding Tribe. He mentioned that the imitation process requires a significant amount of time spent observing, waiting, and continuously adjusting until the imitated sounds do not scare away the animals. Interestingly, even during the sound collection process, it attracted the approach of birds. At that moment, Matia developed an interest in the process of separation and closeness between animals and himself, delving into the nature of the differences in the process. It is not merely about sound similarity or imitation but an exploration of what lies behind the sound.
