解剖、製作標本是嘗試理解未知之物運作的方式，
同時在生命的毀滅中找尋關於生命的知識。
人造自然亦不只是景觀的改變，
對我來說從小面對著包圍我的各式家電、技術物，
就像動植物學家面對充斥著各種未知存在的自然，
裡頭不斷有誘人的能量及運作機制促使我們想向內窺看。
曾經我們擁有與這些技術物相關的知識和技能，
卻在快速消費下與其產生斷裂，
面對逐漸與我們相似的客體產生恐懼會源自於自身的貧乏嗎？
「剖開一具屍體，看看裡頭有什麼？」
Anatomising and creating specimens is an attempt to understand the unknown, while seeking knowledge about life through the destruction of life itself.
Artificial nature is not just a change in scenery. Growing up surrounded by various household appliances and technological objects was similar to a botanist or zoologist facing a natural world filled with countless unknown entities. Within them, there is a constant allure of energy and operational mechanisms that compel us to peer inward.
We once possessed knowledge and skills related to these technological objects, but they have become fragmented due to rapid consumption. Could our fear of objects that increasingly resemble us stem from our own deprivation?
“Open up a few corpses, and see what is inside?”
