In the laws and regulations for setting fire extinguishers, "set according to the nature of potential fires in various places, and calculate the minimum fire-fighting effectiveness value according to the following regulations…". "Potential" and "Minimum" refer to events that have not yet occurred and provide us with preventative measure just in case. Therefore, as always, the fire extinguishers stand in the corner of the white box space like a still life. I built a properly controlled greenhouse with electric heaters and red lights in the exhibition space, like a rehearsal indicating for a fire. Its purpose is not to point to possible future incidents but to try to "precisely" pull the relationship between us and the disaster back to the reality from the gray area that cannot be estimated.

在設置滅火器的法規中「視各類場所潛在火災性質設置,並依下列規定核算其最低滅火效能值……」的「潛在」與「最低」指涉尚未發生的事件,提供我們對災難可能發生的防範,而滅火器便一如既往地,如靜物般站立於白盒空間中的邊角。我在展覽現場,以暖爐、紅色光源搭建出可妥善控制的溫室,如劇場般醞釀一場火災的預示。其目的並非指向未來的可能性事件,而是試圖將我們與災難之間的關係,從無法估算的灰色地帶中「精確地」拉回現場。
