This series of works discusses the totem symbolism monuments and portraits. How to digitally materialize what exists in the hearts or the mind of everyone in Taiwan. Take Mr. Sun (Sun Yat-sen) as an example. Sun Yat-sen has only been to Taiwan three times (short stay) and the country he founded had nothing to do with Taiwan, but his portraits exist in all corners of Taiwan.
During the production process of the exhibits, the "Anthropomorphic" monuments were assembled with the images of three figures of history found online.

本系列作品討論的不僅是外在實存的風景,延伸到紀念物與肖像等意象的圖騰符號的延續,如何跳躍數位而存在台灣每個人的心中。以孫先生(孫逸仙)為例,雖然孫逸仙只來過臺灣三次(短暫停留),其建國也與臺灣人毫無關係,但他的肖像卻存在臺灣的各個角落,彷彿是個活生生的人一般,或許是內化後的景致,在淺意識中我們真實的認為他的存在是足以影響臺灣的現實社會。
展品製作過程,用數以孫逸仙網路圖像拼湊出「擬人化」的紀念碑,看似真實,卻又是形象化後的雕塑品,同時外表以「數位版畫」在切割過後刻印在壓克力板上。此作品同時存在著影像與立體雕塑物的真實存有問題。
