理念 | Statement
作品以現地的土石、種子及自然材料建築成一集水、過濾的裝置,展示上下游山林及溼地的動態縮影。同時邀請新北坪林實驗國中同學,共同實現上游居民與北勢溪生活的技藝與記憶,透過人為勞動、裝置自身成就這份自然的禮物。The artwork is constructed using local soil, seeds, and natural materials to create a water-collecting and filtering installation, showcasing a dynamic reflection of the upstream and downstream mountain forests and wetlands. At the same time, it invites students from Pinglin Experimental Junior High School in New Taipei City to collaborate and bring to life the skills and memories of the upstream residents and the life along the Beishi Creek. Through human labor and the installation itself, this artwork itself is a gift to nature.

Keting Chen

Keting received his Master's degree in Plant Pathology from the Department of Plant Pathology, National Chung Hsing University, specializing in lichen biodiversity research.Previously Keting served as a horticultural technician in the Palau Technical Assistance Group and conducted research for the Indigenous Plants Project at the Forestry Research Institute of the Council of Agriculture.

Through a continuous blending of art and science in daily life practices, Keting founded "Collective Studio" in his hometown, Pinglin, New Taipei City, in 2017. This endeavor reflects a return to the origins of human development — collecting resources from our surroundings for survival, while simultaneously fostering a nurturing environment. Keting initiated the "Pinglin Story Collection" series, connecting both internal and external communities and schools. Through courses, workshops, and collaborative learning groups, engaging in collective gathering, preserving stories, and creatively applying them. This process helps construct a comprehensive local knowledge system, bridging generations and reshaping local influence and ultimately aiming to foster local identity and work collectively towards sustainable development, thereby realizing a hopeful future.
