Copy and Paste is a result of repeating actions. Copying and Pasting text messages on our cell phones, simplifies our complicated emotions. I try to copy and paste them individually, one by one by hand to record my emotional changes from time to time. Multiples of a words can communicate the intensity of a feeling or emotion. I asked myself three questions that I struggle a lot in my life and they are three songs from 3 famous bands. 

​《複製與貼上》(Copy and Paste)是一個由重複動作而成的結果，不斷以模版噴柒的方式把一個相同的字噴在畫布上，直到畫布滿佈同一個字。作品由現代社會中的電話溝通模式所引發，在電話世界中，人們會以copy and paste的方式把字句重複來強調在電話中往往容易被削弱掉的情感，但當制式地重複來表達情感時，生硬的文字和字型到底又能傳達多少情感呢，我嘗試以人手方式去強調那種情感的轉變。這件作品問了三個非常讓自己糾結的問題，而全都是著名樂隊的名曲歌名。
