以向楊梅在地居民募集的閒置刀具為創作素材,將其轉化為書的意象,象徵知識與生活經驗的累積,呼應張芳杰校長深耕教育、以生活為教材的教育精神。每一把菜刀皆承載家庭記憶與歲月痕跡,如同被翻閱的生命篇章。

This creative project repurposes knives gathered from the Yangmei community, turning them into artistic “books" to symbolize the growth of wisdom and experience. The work reflects the educational spirit of Principal Chang Fang-chieh, who believed that life itself is the best textbook. Every knife, marked by years of use and household memories, represents a unique chapter in the story of a person’s life, inviting viewers to turn the pages of history.
