使用傳統工藝媒材-生漆繪製，從一張草圖到工具、材料、描繪、貼附、堆疊、研磨的過程，蘊含著重覆確認與糾結細節的循環，控制完美已變成無意識的行為。作品〈薛西佛斯的糞球〉(Sisyphean poop balls，2023) ，從作畫工序第一個步驟「轉寫」提出思考；從輸出腦中意象開始轉化成實體草圖，再一次的，掃描複印剪黏排列加工，再一次的，描圖紙或複寫紙描繪線稿轉印到本體上。作者收集整理這些動態產生的素材，以他者角度觀看創作的行為，複寫的技術，反覆做同一件事，技術性反復，指涉在人類社會機制裡徒勞無功的行為無處不在。

The artist regularly uses traditional craft materials—natural lacquer—for painting. The process, from an initial sketch to tools, materials, drawing, attaching, layering, and polishing, embodies a cycle of repeated confirmations and entanglement with details. The pursuit of perfection has become an unconscious act.

The artwork Sisyphean Poop Balls (2023) initiates reflections starting from the first step in the painting process, "transcription." This step transforms mental imagery into physical sketches, followed by scanning, copying, cutting, rearranging, processing, and once again transferring outlines to the main body using tracing or carbon paper. The artist collects and organizes materials dynamically produced during this process, observing the act of creation from an outsider’s perspective. Using transcription techniques, the work explores the concept of repetitive action and technical repetition, referencing the omnipresence of futile actions within human societal mechanisms.
