Tomato（番茄）

作品简介: 你有没有曾经静静地凝视过一颗番茄？虽说有些突兀，但我喜欢番茄。不过，我喜欢的不是作为食物的它，而是更被它的形态、质感和颜色所深深吸引。坚韧的果皮、舒展的果梗、复杂交织的果肉…… 番茄拥有独特的元素，这些元素共同构成了它独一无二的美丽，也正是番茄成为番茄的理由。这件作品中，我不断追寻心中理想的美丽番茄形象，并将其转化为图像。既是我对番茄喜爱的证明，也是展示其魅力、分享记忆碎片的尝试。

Description: Have you ever quietly gazed at a single tomato? It may sound abrupt, but I love tomatoes. Not as food, but rather for their form, texture, and color that deeply fascinate me. The resilient skin, the spreading stem, the intricately woven flesh—each element is unique, and together they create the beauty that makes a tomato what it is. In this work, I pursued the image of my ideal, most beautiful tomato and transformed it into visual form. It serves both as proof of my affection for tomatoes and as an attempt to reveal their charm and share fragments of memory.
