作品介紹｜

陽光灑在波動的水面上，反射金色光輝，山景映著火紅的熱烈，這樣的美麗印象是否令人精神嚮往？此作品試圖以庭園山水中的山水手法,呈現層層疊疊的歷史身份，回溯松山菸廠這臺灣經濟史上輝煌的星星，其身份在當時是國家定位與經濟角力的產物，亦是樂園所在。這裡也乘載了每一位員工回憶中難忘的美麗記憶，同時也描述了臺灣人的歷史。友啊喂聽我勸，吃煙咱著來吃樂園！

Introduction｜

The sun shines on the rippling water, with glorious golden hues reflected and a passionate fiery red projected on the mountains. Do you long for this kind of spectacularly beautiful view? This artwork adapts traditional landscaping techniques to present the site’s historical identity through overlapping layers. It traces the past of the Shongshan Tobacco Plant as a shining star in Taiwan’s economic history. Its identity at the time was a product of national positioning and economic wrangling, and it was also a place that many thought of as a paradise. Those who used to work at the plant made unforgettable and beautiful memories here, and also embodied here are recounts of Taiwanese history. As the song goes, “Iú—ueh-iah thiann-guá khǹg, tsia̍h-hun lán tio̍h lâi tsia̍h lo̍k-hn̂g.” (Hey friends, listen to me, if you want to smoke, you should try Paradise.)

*Paradise, later renamed New Paradise, was a brand of cigarettes produced in post-war Taiwan at the Shongshan Tobacco Plant.
