    2017年我數次往返大小金門,拍攝國共內戰後所留下的戰地遺跡。島上的天然景觀在漫長的戰地歲月中,依據軍事用途被逐步改造。國軍在島上密集地建造無數據點、碉堡、防線,和地下密佈如蟻巢的坑道,當一觸即發的情勢不再,島嶼重新披覆荒草,這些軍事廢墟成為被歷史遺忘的場所。
    沿著金門島跟烈嶼(小金門)的海岸一路勘察,在眼前展開的風景,是一層層由時間、空間、歷史,和戰爭所堆疊累積。這些元素彼此交互作用,交織藏匿在看似平淡的風景中,構築成有著細微不尋常之處的景象。這片地景述說著戰爭的創傷和悲痛,曾經發生過的事件在時間緩慢推移下成為隱沒在空間之中的殘痕。

    In 2017, I spent several trips to Great Kinmen and Lesser Kinmen taking photographs of battlefields remained from the civil war between Nationalist Government and the Communist Party. The natural landscape on the island has been gradually modified in accordance with military use throughout the long period of wars. The ROC Armed Forces intensively built countless fortified points, bunkers, defense lines and underground tunnel networks like ant nests. When the situation was no longer on the verge of breaking out, the islands were once again overgrown with wild grasses and these military ruins became places forgotten by history.
    Surveying along the coasts of Kinmen Island and Lieyu Island (Lesser Kinmen), the scenery unfolding before us is a layered accumulation of time, space, history, and war. These elements are interacting with each other, intertwining and hidden in a seemingly dull landscape, which create scenes with subtle extraordinariness. This landscape depicts the wounds and sorrows from the war. The events that have happened become the traces hidden in space with the slow passage of time.
