從小有意識開始就喜愛畫畫創作美術，國小的作品會被老師和母親拿去比賽，我希望念上好的美術大學，可惜我學科不好，隨意轉向念英美文學系，至此後就隨波逐流工作玩樂，青春生活流浪繞了一大圈後，尤其是拋開一切去澳洲打工幾年的日子，沒有了固定工作的生活模式，讓我拾起創作的靈魂，隨機在各個我待過的空間地點隨意創作，任何身邊有的素材我都利用，改造所有我所在的空間，所有旅行的過客都紛紛被這樣的創意感動和激發，我相信藝術和創意能玩出生命力，回來台灣後，我終究感受到生命的招喚，拾起真我的天賦做創作。我只想與大家一起玩起藝術，沒有特定主題，感受因我的創作而有的感受，享受成為人的樂趣。

Taiwanese/Born in 22. 11. 1987 /PingTung City, Taiwan/Female 

​

From a young age, I’ve loved drawing and creating art. In elementary school, my works were often entered into competitions by my teachers and mother. I dreamed of attending a top art university, but unfortunately, my academic performance wasn't strong. So, I shifted paths and pursued a degree in English and American Literature instead. After that, I drifted through work and leisure, spending my youth wandering and exploring.

One pivotal period was when I let go of everything and spent a few years working in Australia. Without the constraints of a fixed job, I rediscovered my creative spirit. I began to create spontaneously in every space and location I stayed in, using whatever materials were available around me. I transformed every space I inhabited, and travelers who passed by were often moved and inspired by this creativity. I came to believe that art and creativity can breathe vitality into life.

After returning to Taiwan, I finally felt the call of life, urging me to embrace my true gift and create arts again. Now, I just want to share the joy of art with everyone. There’s no specific theme—only the feelings evoked by my creations and the enjoyment of the human experience.
