Summary: | 碩士 === 國立清華大學 === 藝術與設計學系所 === 107 === Based on the author's own childhood experience, this article explores the minor events that have occurred but were hidden behind the school setting, and probes "Playing" which is the pressure-relieving channel that have been abandoned under the scholasticism through the series of works: "Records of Childhood." The series of works: "Over and Beneath the Tabletop" illustrates attacks through casual speech between classmates, which in turn makes people tagged in the way that doesn’t match the truth. The serial work of “Flip” talks about the transformation from childhood to adulthood and relevant issues during the growing process. The author re-examines the events related to childhood experiences and converts them onto the canvas to relieve stress. Just like writing a diary, painting can also record trivial but important details of life.
