我像一個鬼魂，像一個影子，追隨著你的話語。 那裡有一個人和你一起談論著我們的地方。 於是我從你出來變成了我自己，再變成我們。 我們就寫詩，標註了你和我。 在那裡。 說不出來，但是感覺蠻好的。
在2006年我的錄像作品〈紅色嘴巴〉中，以鮮紅的嘴唇，導覽性的語調，說著似乎輕盈而無特別所指的話語─「我們這裡沒什麼特別的，就是菜很新鮮」，這是一個以個人角度發聲的述說。 於是在2010年的〈我們的嘴〉這件作品裡，我想像著描繪一種重複描繪的輪廓。 在黑白粗顆粒並有字幕的畫面裡，眾人傳遞出的各自的語言描繪線條，它們像是被壓附在平面的紙張裡，它們透過我而有一個共同的投射對象，但又各自面向著自身的歷程。有鮮紅嘴唇的影像，像是一個譯者，也是吟唱者，它咀嚼了被述說的話語，變成了它們，它是一個真正的引薦者。
I'm like a ghost, a shadow, following your words.
A person and you are talking about our place.
Coming out of you, I transform into me, and then us.
We write a poem, marking you and me.
There we are, wordless, but it's a pleasant feeling.
In my video work, Red Lip 2006, an image of a red lip with a repeated sentence, “There is nothing special here but fresh vegetables” spoken in a tender but unspecific tone like a guide. It's from first-person perspective. Therefore, I re-depicted this profile in this new work, Our Lips 2010. In the black & white channel, each description of the place said by participants is like a separate line flattened on paper. These conversations refer to the same subject because of my question, but they also show a personal history of each resident. The red lip in another channel represents a person who recommends a place. She translated the lines flattened on paper by ruminating those sentences, and spoke out like reciting poetry.
