Makotaay的陀螺，2022

陶土

30 × 14公分、22 × 11公分、20 × 10公分、18 × 10公分

阿美族人的fotong (福通) 神話中陀螺的功能是開闢田地，產出小米、糯米與豬的起源。這次創作想延伸神話中陀螺的寓意：創造力、種子、給予生命力的想像。因此我藉由採集海岸山脈的黏土礦，加上貝類與海岸邊礁岩壺穴為造型概念製作出Makotaay的陀螺，在藝術村四周散落，如同藝術村的創造力生生不息。

Makotaay's Spinning Top, 2022

Clay

11.81× 5.51 in., 8.66 × 4.33 in., 7.87 × 3.94 in., 7.09× 3.94 in.

In the Pangcah myth of the fotong (spinning top), the function of the top is to reclaim land for agriculture, produce millet and glutinous rice, and create wild boars. This piece expands upon the top’s metaphors: creativity, seeds, and the instillation of vitality. So, I made tops for Makotaay out of clay from the coastal mountains with inspiration from the forms of shells and reef potholes. I placed them all around the Art Village as a symbol of how creativity never ceases there.
