藝術家在日常結構趨於同質化與追求效率的背景下，捕捉熟悉卻易被忽視的視覺符號，並將「愉悅」從抽象的情緒感受，轉化為一種可被操作的方法。其創作在於探討如何透過尺度、重複與媒材的轉向，鬆動固有的感知經驗。透過將作品尺幅放大至超越身體的規格，使視覺圖像干預空間環境，進而引發觀者視線與身體的位移。在手法上，利用大量機械式的重複操作或肌肉記憶的筆觸繪製，將單一圖像（如花朵、眼睛或符號）擴散為覆蓋表面的感官裝置。試圖以這種連續且密集的視覺能量，對原本沉重、壓抑的現實結構產生「側移」效果，讓規矩的日常節奏產生偏移。

The artist captures familiar yet easily overlooked visual symbols, transforming "pleasure" from an abstract emotional state into an operable methodology. Her work is based on an exploration about loosening inherent perceptual experiences through shifts in scale, repetition, and materiality. Allowing visual imagery to intervene in the spatial environment by enlarging the dimensions of the works beyond bodily proportions, the artist triggers a displacement of the viewer's gaze and physical presence. Methodologically, she employs extensive mechanical repetition or strokes drawn from muscle memory to expand single motifs—such as flowers, eyes, or symbols—into sensory installations that blanket the surface. Through this continuous and dense visual energy, I aim to create a "lateral shift" within originally heavy and oppressive realistic structures, causing a deviation in the disciplined rhythms of the everyday.
