作品說明：
借用花與蕊的隱喻轉化成圓與軸的運行特點，衍生出現代幾何的工業之美。從人類會運用輪軸開始有了移動工具，發展至今有著幾千年的發展脈絡，輪軸的構成曾經是如何摩登現代也是人類邁向工業化的重要歷程。地面上有著綠化公園及兒童遊戲場的複合式公園的地下停車場；安排花與蕊的連結象徵著生生不息的傳承。花的繁衍與不同階段的樣貌，轉化成輪與線的安排，如圍繞軌跡與潛藏在基因中不變的路徑，是花開結果繁盛的景象，同時彰顯市民群策群力共同朝向活力及光明的未來。透過零件般的組構安排，讓設置場域多一點主題想像和啟發幼童一種類型的美學。

Introduction：
This work transforms an allusion to flowers and stamen into the operating features of a circle and axel, giving rise to the beautiful industry of modern geometry. Ever since humanity started to use the wheel and axel there have been tools that facilitate movement and these have developed over several millennia. At one point, the construct of the wheel and axel was the height of modernity and an important milestone in humanity’s movement toward industrialization. The installation location is a combined green park and children’s playground above an underground parking garage.The flower and stamen connection symbolizes the ongoing nature of heritage, transformed so the arrangement of wheels and lines becomes the propagation of flowers and their appearance in different stages of growth.This speaks to the unchanging path of a circular trajectory also hidden in genetic makeup, or the wonderful image of a blooming flower. At the same time, this work showcases what happens when citizens pool their wisdom and efforts as they move toward a vital and bright future. Through a structural arrangement that involves zero components, the ocation is imbued with an additional hematic imagination and an alternativemaesthetic that inspires young children.
