Apprehending that leaving behind a familiar place inevitably leads to a new voyage. The disorientation of streets, ports and alleys is similar to a river that drifts towards an endless ocean of uncertainties.
A voyage has two opposing points – the beginning and the end respectably. I suppose a voyage is just a fictitious space-time, the sceneries end when the traveller arrives. The number of sceneries dictates the number of junctions. The possibilities at the end of the route are vast.
In Journey of the Madline, I continue my voyage from the previous exhibition Diary of the Madline. The artworks are expressed using basic elements such as dots and lines. The random yet mechanical qualities of drawing convey the traces of my journey. The traveling lines and the impressed dots made up to the idea of an endless route. Madlines – being random yet direct, tirelessly travelling towards the other side.
The work divides between long-distance and shorter range using different media . The pencil drawings depict the longer journey, and the color drawings depict the short distance recording in the town. There are 14 long-distance journeys and 23 smaller town journeys recorded.

旅行有兩個端點，一端是出發，一端是抵達，假設旅程只是虛構的時空，抵達時風景就結束。有多少處風景，就有多少分岔口，話句話說，途經有很多條。遊走的線條與停頓的戳點反映了途經，朝著線的另一端徑直奔去。
作品以兩種不同的尺寸與媒介作為界分長途與短程的差異。鉛筆刻畫的是長途的旅程，彩色刻畫的則是在小鎮裡的短程記錄。分別是14張較大的長途旅程繪畫記錄圖和25張較小的小鎮旅程繪畫記錄圖。
