Depicted are aerial views from the bird viewing park in the back gardens of Guan Du Temple. I combined the sunset and moonlight in this image as they both look especially beautiful in this wide and infinite wetland. When I was at Taipei High School, there were no apartments in this area; one can often see the flying geese returning to its nest in this original wetland. Combining Guan Du Temple’s overlapping temple roofs, the sunset, moonlight, fairies, shadows, flying geese and wetlands — a mysteriously poetic painting is completed throughCubist techniques.

從關渡宮後庭院的丘上鳥瞰觀鳥公園。這裡是廣漠的濕原,夕陽下山或月光下特別美麗,我把這兩景都合併畫在畫面裡。我讀台北高等學校時,這地方沒有公寓,還是那種時常看見歸巢的飛雁的原始濕原帶。統合關渡宮的重疊廟頂、夕陽下山、月亮、仙女、幻影、成列飛雁、濕園等,以立體派技巧畫出神秘的詩畫。
