A pair of seemingly mummified pupae, one upright and one facing down, with indistinct faces. They bring the hope of oracle promises. Created a few months after the destruction of my home and studio in 2018, I returned to the original site to discover a forgotten pet cocoon lying intact in a box in the basement. I brought it to the yard and buried it in the soil. After a few seconds of contact with the soil, the cocoon unexpectedly wriggled. I brought it back home again. One day in the spring of the following year, it quietly emerged, and I was moved to tears. This artwork serves as a commemoration of that moment.

一對看似木乃伊的蛹,一正一反,看不清臉孔。牠帶來神諭允諾的希望。創作於2018住家與工作室付之一炬後的數月,回原址發現忙亂中遺忘的寵物蛾蛹完好躺在地下室的盒子裡,於是拿到院子埋葬,接觸土壤幾秒後蛹竟蠕動了起來,於是又帶了回家。隔年春天的某日,牠悄然羽化而出,我感動落淚,以此作紀念。
