artist statement

Push and shove‭, ‬jostle the way to the front‭;
‬
elbowing or simply thrusting oneself in‭…‬

cutting into line is a familiar sight‭…‬

at terminus‭, ‬cinemas‭, ‬markets‭, ‬

even at occasions where getting ahead is not necessary‭. ‬

Small towns‭, ‬large metropolis‭….‬

such abnormal behavior has become the norm‭. ‬

It is a way of life‭.‬

This is not a‭ ‬question of principles

but a problem of disrespect‭. ‬

This is not a question of selfishness

but a problem of inconsideration‭, ‬alienation‭. ‬

This is not a question of order

but a problem of lack of discipline‭. ‬

This is not a question of being there two minutes earlier

but a fundamental problem undermining the country’s development‭ ‬

and growth in the long run‭.‬

切入、批肘、攝位、推撞⋯⋯
打尖、‭ ‬插隊,無處不在⋯⋯

車站、‭ ‬戲院、市場,
甚至不用先人一步的場合。

小城市、大城市⋯⋯

見怪不怪,或已轉成為理所當然的民生生態。

這不止是原則的問題,

這是尊重的問題。

這不止是自我中心的問題,

這是目中無人的問題。排他的問題。

這不止是生活秩序的問題,

這是社會序秩的問題。

這不止是快慢兩分鐘的問題,

這是國家長遠、‭ ‬結構性的問題。
