「日用品」是一系列的繪畫作品，主角是香港人常用的毛巾，可讓觀者對照熟悉和相似的東西。我看重日常生活的物件，但其中隱含的效果可以是在我構想以外的。我希望作品可以給予普羅大眾更多提示，不然我會選擇抽象概念的方向。

Commodity is a series of paintings playing with some recognizable elements in the most common towels used in Hong Kong, which can bring up a confrontation of likeness and familiarity among the viewers. The intension of picking up daily objects as motifs is crucial to me but the broader connotative outcome is sometimes out of reach from my initiative. I want to give some more hints to the viewers about what I draw so even the less sophisticated audience can get some ideas from my work. Otherwise I have gone for abstraction.
