追朔「備忘錄」拉丁語字源 memoro所形成的動名詞,意為「應該被記住的」。阿美族語 mi 為「拿取」的驅動詞,也是生命與生存的原始驅動,不論是在原鄉採集與傳統文化慣習有關的實用植物,或是都市原住民收集廢板材在城市邊陲建構生存空間,將兩者生活經驗做一個造型結合;拓印植物就像遠古壁畫或化石留存,廢板材經歷使用與歲月痕跡呈現生命力,將此集合物置於自然林間讓陽光灑落呈現光點斑塊,藉此進行一個記憶的行為。備忘錄 (MOU) 也是各方採取行動的協議,透過補遺兩端的動作去演示生態豐富島嶼的當代史。

Tracing back the Latin root of "memorandum," memoro is a verbal noun meaning "something that should be remembered." In the Amis language. "mi" is a verb meaning "to take" and also represents the primal drive for life and survival; whether it's gathering useful plants tied to traditional cultural practices in the indigenous homeland, or urban Indigenous peoples collecting discarded wood to build survival spaces on the outskirts of cities, this piece merges both life experiences into a singular form. The plant imprints resemble ancient cave paintings or preserved fossils, while the discarded wood bears the marks of use and time, reflecting vitality. This assemblage is placed in the natural forest where sunlight filters through, creating patches of light, engaging in an act of memory. A memorandum (MOU) also signifies an agreement for action between parties. By attempting to bridge the gaps, this work seeks to reenact the contemporary history of an ecologically rich island in Taiwan.
