DUST

朗透過在DUST系列捕捉人們在現代生活中所感受到的無形壓力，並投放在飾物上呈現，將每個人日常生活使用的語氣詞以及人物意象，結合抽象的面容表現出現代人的悲歌。這些飾物如同一面面微型的鏡子，反映了我們在日常溝通中流露的細微情緒，無論是語氣詞中隱含的無奈，還是抽象面容中的茫然與疲憊。

就如一首首無聲的詩篇，輕聲訴說著每個人在追逐生活的洪流中，如何努力適應卻又難掩內心的脆弱。朗希望透過這種極具象徵意義的表現形式，提醒每一位為理想奮鬥的人，在競爭激烈的世界中，我們的存在或許如微塵般渺小，但正因這些微塵的集合，才構築出這片多彩的天地。作品中不僅是對個人情感的詮釋，也是一場對社會現狀的反思，鼓勵觀者停下腳步，正視自己的內心。

In DUST,  Long captures the intangible pressures of modern life and channels them into jewelry, using the tone particles of daily speech and human imagery, combined with abstract facial expressions, to portray the lament of contemporary individuals. These pieces of jewelry serve as tiny mirrors, reflecting the subtle emotions that surface in our everyday interactions—whether it’s the helplessness hidden in tone particles or the confusion and fatigue conveyed through abstract faces.  

Like silent poems, they softly narrate how each person strives to adapt in the relentless currents of life, yet struggles to conceal their inner fragility. Through this deeply symbolic form of expression, Long aims to remind everyone pursuing their ideals that, in a fiercely competitive world, our existence may seem as insignificant as specks of dust. However, it is precisely the gathering of these specks that creates the vibrant tapestry of our collective reality. These works are not only interpretations of individual emotions but also reflections on societal conditions, encouraging viewers to pause and confront their inner selves.
