Artist: 林南宏 LIN Nan Hong (Taiwan, b. 1994)
人生漫長的旅途中,往往會在不同的階段裡遇到其各自所需面對的課題,而斯芬克斯的謎語象徵那些我們面臨現實的無奈以及困惑,身處在這龐大又複雜的世界裡,倘若我們無法找到答案那只能任其給吞噬了。
林南宏覺得每個人都曾有過渴望被了解同時卻害怕表達內心想法的矛盾的心情,而種種表現都出自於自我保護,身為人我們都活在群體裡,面對他人時究竟是真實的我?還是為了符合他人期望而塑造的一個角色,而我們真的了解真實的自我嗎?又或者在成長過程中碰上一些不擅長或心生畏懼不願面對的事物,每當我們一次又一次的逃避這些問題時,它就像是一種心魔,寄生在我們內心深處並嘲笑著自己的軟弱,但需要多少勇氣才能正視並且克服這些問題。
創作元素之一的巴西龜原自南美洲,因商業利益高而引進臺灣,但是許多人養久了之後,就不負責任的任意棄養到附近的水池裡放生,而水池內原有的生態可能會因為這個外來物種而造成生態的不平衡,甚至在某些地區因為巴西龜導致台灣原生物種難以生存而漸漸滅絕...現今不論在哪幾乎都能看見牠的身影,亦是水池、水族館、夜市甚至連在都市中,巴西龜以經侵入侵到我們的生活中但我們渾然不知。

During the long lifetime, we usually have to deal with some obstacles at different stages. We can take the image of the Riddle of the Sphinx as a symbol of frustration and confusion when facing our life reality. While we are living in an immense and complex world, if we can not find the answer, we can only let ourselves be engulfed.
Lin feels that everyone has a desire to be understood but in the meantime is afraid of expressing inner thoughts, and all the performances are from self-protection. As humans, we all live in groups. Is it really our true selves or is it just a character shaped to meet the expectations of others? Do we really understand our true selves? Or, when encountering something that we are not good at or are afraid to face, we evade these problems again and again. Then, it becomes a demon, just like a parasite in our hearts and mocking our weakness. How much courage it takes to face and overcome these problems?
The Brazilian tortoise, which is one of the elements from creation, was originally from South America and was introduced to Taiwan because of its high commercial profit. However, after long-term rearing, many people irresponsibly discarded it and released it to a nearby pool. The alien species may cause the original ecology of the pool imbalance, and even in some areas, the native species of Taiwan are difficult to survive due to Brazilian turtles and gradually become extinct. Now it can almost be seen everywhere, in a pool, aquarium, the night market and even in the city. The Brazilian tortoise invaded our lives with invasion, but we didn't notice it at all.
