昨天傍晚留了一個小時給Christian Boltanski這個感動的作品，走路二十分、觀賞二十分、回程二十分。
第二次不遠千里如求道者徒步上山，只為再看一次豊島山上的Christian Boltanski。踏進森林幽境，耳邊已隱約聽見輕輕騷動的鈴聲，往前三五步，剛抵作品入口，突來一陣繚繞於樹蔭的島風，帶起風鈴的聲潮湧來如水，我被水包圍，全身顫慄，腦還未及解讀，熱淚已先盈眶。同行者問妳是否恐懼、或喜為何來，我不恐懼亦不遺憾個體消失於此，喜則來自被場域歡迎接納，我相信緣分。原本不太想說，說了言不及義，或者只是解釋作品，那並非我所意圖。有些深刻或盈滿，或心裡柔軟的疼痛，愉悅悲傷，都是私人對應，那屬於我，他者由他。
若豐島美術館是洗滌，低語森林就是浸潤，觀者留下一部分意念，遊蕩在鈴聲之間。我想我會為了它們，一直回來豐島。
[My latest work, "La forêt des murmures," is also meant to be interactive. If you wish, you can acquire a wind chime and leave behind the name of a significant person, someone beloved to you, either alive or no longer with us, and this name will be engraved on a strip hanging from a wind chime and become part of the installation. Just like "Les Archives du Cœur," this is not a completed piece of art. I hope more and more names will be added as time passes.
The similarity of these two concepts is their focus on human beings, not gods. My intention was to highlight our fragility. To me, "La forêt des murmures" is calmer and more peaceful than the other work. I feel that's because of the surrounding spirits and souls there. I would say it is a piece that can bring us comfort and happiness.
