This work narrates the scene of air pollution during the industrial period, utilizing the form of a light box to depict the timeline of the land, leveraging light to penetrate the darkness of the stark night, bringing about a process of regeneration and healing to regain the original appearance of Nangang. The patchwork curtain is made of discarded fabric from a recycling plant, using voluminous waste materials to recreate the black smoke-covered air pollution scene back then. The heavy patchwork sets off the divided egg-shaped light boxes. At the brink of division, history, and vision find a new meaning of home.

時與地的交錯變化,產生無限可能。
南港多變的面貌,從工廠時期因日日排放濃密黑煙時的『黑鄉』,
轉身成為玻璃大廈併齊的金貿特區,現在的閃亮也因過去的污名而更加珍貴。
本作品訴說著工業時期的空污景象,採用燈箱的形式,描繪這塊士地的時間軸,再運用光線穿透凝重的闇夜,帶來修復與療癒的過程,重拾南港的原貌。拼布掛簾是由資源回收廠淘汰的廢棄衣物拼製而成,運用龐大的廢棄物重現當年黑煙籠罩的空汙景象。沈重拼布襯托著一分為二的蛋形燈箱,歷史與願景在分裂處找尋家鄉新的意義。
