Who am I? What can I do? What can I leave?

我的家乡是相传中妈祖的阴阳杯放在人间变成两座海岛—筶杯岛，海浪声就是我的童谣。我有一个天马行空且快乐的童年，童年的玩具自己创造，高山湖泊、碧海青天就是我的游乐场……

童年带给我的灵感、获得的故事，亲切而温馨，唤起了我的创作激情和那些尘封且沉睡的情感，提升对作品的丰富性及广阔的认识。重回往昔与自己的童年对话，并将曾经沉默的心声传递给当下的自己。教育的本质是对觉察、觉知、觉悟的塑造，让我们拥有独立的思考、无限可能的创造力，且对社会有一份责任感。

人的一生终极的追求是什么？身体的自由，财富的自由，心灵的自由，金刚经言：应无所住而生其心，即是一种由内而生的自由。我们本是自然的一份子，而自然才是治愈我们的最好方式。童心是一张白纸。应该让他（她）无拘无束的生长，在青山绿水中奔跑，与小伙伴们快快乐乐的玩耍，大胆地去想象，探索未知的世界。

我的创作从自发进入自觉的阶段，对生命和生态有了更多的思考和领悟。这些年主要创作了三大系列主题作品《教育、环保、战争与信仰》，是我对生命的观照。

我用艺术来修行，用作品来表达对社会的一份爱与责任，用艺术种下能量的种子让它生根发芽。

所谓你是谁？能做什么？能留下什么？

My hometown is the legend of Mazu's yin yang cups placed in the human world into two islands- Gaobei islands, the sound of the waves is my nursery rhyme. I have a wild and happy childhood, childhood toys to create my own, the mountains and lakes, the blue sea and the sky is my playground ...

My childhood has brought me inspiration and stories, which are cordial and warm, arousing my creative passion and those dusty and sleeping emotions, and enhancing the richness and broad understanding of my works. Revisit the past to have a dialogue with my own childhood and channel the once-silent voice of my heart into the present. The essence of education is to create awareness, perception and enlightenment, which allows us to have independent thinking, infinite creativity, and a sense of responsibility to the society.

What is the ultimate pursuit of human life? Freedom of the body, freedom of the wealth, freedom of the mind, “Diamond Sutra”- says: There should be a freedom that comes from within, that is, a freedom that comes from us. We are part of nature, and nature is the best way to heal us. A child's heart is a blank sheet of paper. It is time for him (her) to grow freely, run in the green hills and clean waters, play happily with his friends, and boldly imagine and explore the unknown world.

My creativity has moved from spontaneity into a conscious stage, with more thoughts and realizations about life and ecology. In these years, I have mainly created three series of theme works: “Education, Environmental Protection, War and Belief”, which is my reflection on life.

I use art to cultivate, use work to express a love and responsibility to society, with art planted the seeds of energy to make it take root and sprout.

That’s what about I said “Who are you? What can you do? What can you leave behind? ”
