牠們不算是我的寵物，也不是我的朋友，我們像是互相配合般地生活在一起。
藉著2020-2024前後共飼養40隻小白鼠與持續四年的拍攝，我記錄下這些來的純粹的生命以及無話語權、無身分的存在。在小白鼠這一物種早已被同一化，且被賦予某種必定被犧牲的宿命之下，我試圖透過與牠們一起生活來分辨每個個體的獨特性。鏡頭後的我能分辨 出來，在觀者眼中皆為複製品的牠們顯現出的個體性與韌性。
“They are neither my pets nor my friends. We coexist, accommodating each other in
our shared space.”
Through raising 40 mice over four years and continuously photographing them, I documented their pure, speechless, and unidentifiable existence. In a species that has been homogenized and assigned a fate of inevitable sacrifice, I sought to distinguish each individual’s uniqueness by living with them. Behind the camera, I could see the individuality and resilience in them—beings that others would see as mere clones.
