Everyone Needs A Room Of One's Own
The work is based on personal reading experience of “A Room of One’s Own” by Virginia Woolf. The book is noted in its argument for both a literal and figurative space for women writers within a male-dominated world. The narrative, to me, could apply to many situations nowadays. Also current problems are no longer between two sexes, but among all beings sharing the world together. The work visualises my conversation with Woolf, which crosses time and space. As a being living in the moment, I am still in search of who am I and how to identify myself.

維吉尼亞·吳爾芙曾在個人散文<自己的房間>中提出,身處於二十世紀的女性必須有她自己的收入及獨立的房間以此來回應自己面對到身為女性因為社會規範而被拒於大學圖書館門外之處境,裡面的文字對於身處於二十一世紀此時此刻的我來說,不止適用於女性,而問題也不再只介於兩性之間,而是這世上所有的存在,在這壅擠狹窄的世界中,每個存在都需要擁有屬於自己的房間,去與自己相處、對話,再鼓起勇氣去面對這個世界。
此件作品呈現了我在閱讀經驗中與吳爾芙的對話,並且身為一個活在此刻的人,我始終在尋找我是誰並且我該如何定義自己。(或我需要被定義嗎?)
The work is selected to be one of the contributor in "The Queer Dot Zine".
"The Queer Dot Zine" is released with the "The Queer Dot: Our Space, Our Experience." exhibition at GENERATORprojects in Dundee.
