家園

作品說明：
「家園」是和諧的狀態，如同五二工兵團為地方帶來安定的力量。作戰時兵團有任務在身，而平時裡協助在地居民整建家園，例如在921地震時，工兵弟兄在最前線排除天然災害、保衛家園。「家園」靈感來於工兵弟兄守護家園意象，猶如一顆大樹，而樹枝下有山巒與河流，也呼應前面主題「逢山開路，遇水架橋」，「家園」作品傳達一個和諧的狀態。

Introduction：
“Home”represents a state of harmony and refers to the way in which the 52nd Engineering Regiment brings stability to those areas where it is deployed. During wartime the corps has more immediate tasks, but during times of peace it assists local residents to build homes. For example, in the aftermath of the 921 Earthquake in 1999, army corps engineers were on the frontline dealing with the devastation of the disaster and protecting people’s homes. The inspiration for “Home” comes from images of army engineers engaged in such tasks and the work is like a large tree with mountain ranges and rivers below its branches. It is by “building roads across the mountains and bridges over rivers” that the piece conveys a state of harmonious existence.
