【Light in the Dark】
Azania 馮芷蕎
在那片黑暗、深邃、無盡的海洋裡，水母如同人被困時的思緒——渺小、脆弱、近乎沉默地漂浮著，透明而無聲。此作品以水下的「鎖鏈」與「網」構築出生命中無形的困住。金屬鎖鏈與纖維網在水中交織，形成視覺與空間上的壓迫，象徵社會壓力、內心限制與關係的纏繞。它們如深海中的枷鎖，讓人感到動彈不得。
然而，它們在深淵中，成為一束從內在緩緩釋放的光。這不是因為強大，而是因為牠們本質上就是光的載體。水母擁有八行由無數纖毛組成的櫛板結構，當光線穿過時，纖毛如細小的稜鏡，將不同波長的光折射、散射成流動的彩虹閃爍。它們在脆弱與無聲中緩緩游動，折射著周遭的光輝，提醒我們：被困，不等於必須熄滅。
人在尋找光，其實同樣是在尋找自己，看清上帝創造物的本相——有脆弱、有限制，卻同時看見身上折射的恩典。
水母從不獨自長久發光，牠們在流動中彼此映照，發出微弱的光。「你們是世上的光。」（馬太福音 5:14）這光，因著我們彼此的連結，逐漸在深海之中顯明。
In the deep, boundless darkness of the ocean, jellyfish resemble human thoughts in times of hardship—small, fragile, yet quietly floating, transparent and resilient. This work uses underwater “chains” and “nets” to construct the invisible bonds in life. Metal chains and fiber webs intertwine in the water, creating visual and spatial oppression that symbolizes social pressure, inner limitations, and the entanglement of relationships, leaving one feeling unable to move.
Yet, it is precisely in this abyss that the jellyfish become a gentle light released from within. They do not shine because they are powerful, but because they are carriers of light by nature. The jellyfish’s comb plates, composed of countless cilia, act like tiny prisms when light passes through, refracting and scattering it into flowing rainbow sparkles. In their fragility and silence, they drift softly, reflecting the surrounding light and reminding us: being trapped does not mean one must be extinguished.
In seeking light, we are also seeking ourselves—seeing clearly the true nature of God’s creation: though fragile and limited, we can still reflect the grace of His light.
Jellyfish do not glow alone for long; they illuminate one another as they move together. “You are the light of the world.” (Matthew 5:14) This light, through our connection with one another, gradually shines forth in the deep sea.
