LuYiShiRuoHanBaDiShiDaJie, 路義士若翰巴地士打街
'This is one of the works I've done during my residency in Macau. I was interested in the senseless and endless Portuguese names of Macau streets that have been translated into the local Cantonese. I invited a local girl to practice her Mandarin on the street names and through multi-translations, the original political and commercial message became meaningless.' (artist statement)
「這是我在澳門居住計劃中的一件作品——邀請一位當地的女孩用街名來練習普通話。我佷感興趣於澳門街道眾多的冗長而不知所謂的名字。這種被翻譯成當地廣東話的街名原於對葡萄牙殖民主的紀念。但通過多重的翻譯，原語義的政治和商業信息已變得毫無意義。」（藝術家作品自述）
