「維基百科說僅勾勒出輪廓，形體，而不加繪肌理，光影的細節，這是速寫。我想，和我相差不遠吧！不同的是，我在同一張畫裡，速寫了好多遍。我們看到的總是過去，因為，光線從遙遠的物體上到達我們這裡需要經歷漫長的時間。」

在這次作品裡，戴宛蓁以各種細微的感覺與回憶在畫裡回應並重新描述，每一次的回顧、再描述，都顯現出不同的意義。回憶內在的存有，情感的抒發，從模糊的記憶到畫面的雛形架構，在架構中漸漸清楚所有空間氛圍，轉化成形狀、肌理與色彩。在重新書寫的狀態裡，時間軸被再度拉開，以新的姿態重新賦予意義，在反覆的狀態中，試圖翻找出記憶中的重疊，這一短暫時光的再現，讓這些當下再度成為一種紀念。

“According to Wikipedia, a quick sketch is merely an outline, a form without drawing any texture, neither the details of light and shadow. I think that I am not differing from that a lot! The difference is that I am sketching many times over the same painting. What we are looking at is always the past, that is because the light on the object takes a long time to reach where we actually are.

In this exhibition, Dai Wan Jen responds and depicts with sensitiveness and reminiscence at the same time. With every review and every new description, different meanings become unveiled. From a vague memory to the first draft on the painting,Dai makes all the room and atmosphere become visible, transforming memories into form, texture and color. By re-sketching over and over again, a new meaning is given. While trying to figure out the overlap of memories,this temporary review makes the current feelings become a new memory again.
