小小世界

作品說明：
小小世界”發想來自於觀察原生海底動植物的強大生命力，與環境互動生長而來，梧南國小校舍建築造型上具有著海洋生物般的流線，並由於學校臨海特性，氣候與海風實為相當嚴峻。在真實海洋中尋求有利位置與生活的條件來克服環境的困難，此種概念也成為作品發想中的一環，攀爬附著於建築的周邊一隅，建築量體的宏大也保護著作品，作品表面的圖案有著如原生植物的形狀線條，呈現多種特徵與顏色變化的層次，想要在此一角落增加現實空間與海底繽紛絢麗圖像的疊合趣味。而這具有強大生命力的植物，正如同求學成長中的孩子們，過程中緩慢點滴的長大，但仔細觀察卻也會發現他們成長飛快速度的痕跡，希望給人對動植物與環境的互動有著更多的想法。

Introduction：
In architectural modeling, the houses of Wu－Nan Elementary School bear marine life－like flow lines, and local climate and sea breezes are rigorous at times as the school stand by the ocean. Because of these features, the idea to create Small World is derived from observation on the strong vitality of flora and fauna primitively growing under the sea, and the interaction of those benthos and the oceanic surroundings. Seeking and exploring advantageous locations and living conditions to bridge over the environmental difficulties is also an important concept for designing and making this Small World at the initial stage. The climbing artwork is attached to an outer corner of the schoolhouse, while the bulky building protect the work. The patterns painted on the surface of the work demonstrate the shapes and lines just like protophyte and protozoan in the sea； through a variety of traits and multi－level change of colors, the artist wants to bring this corner a thriving and bright image with superimposed delights by twining real space and underwater world together. The Small World shows the formidable life force of thalassic animals and plants, just like the school kids growing strong and sturdy bit by bit；nevertheless, it may also be found that they are brought up so fast while giving a careful and close observation. We hope this artwork can inspire the public to have more thoughts about the interaction between any beings and their environments.
