去年秋，我在舊金山荒野的隧道裡，
看到一位老婦依靠助行器，
緩緩又緩緩的移動，
這裡離最近的城市有超過二十公里，
我突然就發現，世界上沒有比她更緩慢的生物。
晚餐時，我跟其他的藝術家講到老婦，
他/她們譏笑她，
我才知道那不是幻覺。
所以我說：我們應該打911
另一晚有個座談會，我跟別人介紹自己作品，
只來三、四十人，其中五位成了我的朋友。
幾天後，最老的灣區藝術家伯尼魯貝爾拿了張圖來，
說圖畫的東西會像動物一樣四腳走路，
自己做了幾次都是不能動的，
這是一份禮物。
說因為他喜歡我的馬，
希望我把圖裡的東西作成功後，能給他看。
後來知道，圖是俄羅斯數學家切比雪夫發明的四足機器。
但我什麼都沒作，就離開舊金山。
回家的班機從紐約起飛，
我在門邊的小窗看到北極，
而等下就會經過西伯利亞。
我常想起，那位老婦，她是不是還在走，
以及那些約好的腳。
I saw an old lady, walked slowly by walker, in a wild tunnel in San Francisco last fall.
The closest city is over 20 miles away.
Suddenly I realized there was nothing slower than her in the world.
At dinner, I mentioned about the old lady with other artists.
They mocked her.
Then I figured out that was not an illusion.
So I said, ‘’we should call 911."
The other night there was an artist's talk and I introduced my works to others.
There were 30 to 40 participants, and five of them became my friends.
Few days later, I got a drawing from the oldest artist, Berni Robert, from Bay Area.
He explained that the piece in the drawing could walk like an animal with four legs.
However he could not make it work.
It was a present from him because he liked my artworks.
He hoped I could accomplish it.
Afterwards, I found the drawing was a four-leg machine which was
invented by Russian mathematician Chebyshev.
But I left San Francisco without doing anything.
The return flight took off from New York.
I saw the North Pole through the window alongside the gate.
Later it flew over Siberia.
I often think about the old lady, wondering if she still walks,
and those legs that I had a deal with.
席時斌 Shih-Pin Hsi
1977年生於台灣台北，畢業於國立台北藝術大學造形藝術研究所(MFA)。專長複合媒材之雕塑與裝置。創作的多變性，外顯於令人驚艷的多種材質、顏色、處理、尺寸的組合，內在則專注於揀擇日常物象的結構與形貌，透過「分解 / 重組」的手法打造出隱性奇異的形體與空間。透過古典技術的演練與自然的幻想，席時斌企圖捕捉的不是那些可以經過我們有限知覺所感知的東西，而是隱喻性地超越了這些形體，傳達物件曾經感知的「記憶」。更冀望在生命累積出的軌跡中，實驗可能性的未來。

HSI SHIH-PIN
Born in 1977 in Taipei, Taiwan, Hsi Shih-Pin received an MFA degree of Plastic Arts from Taipei National University of the Arts (TNUA). He specializes in sculpture and installation of mixed media. The variety of Hsi’s works shows in the combination of variable media, colors, size, and modes. Inside of his works, the artist focuses on structures and appearances of daily objects, then transfer them into peculiar shape and space by deconstruction and recombination. Hsi tries to keep those memories that experienced by objects far from our perception with the practice of classical techniques and his imagination. Based on his life experience, the artist expects to experiment more possibilities in the future.
