你好老師， 我是Lily 在B班。

媽媽你現在可以開始了

呃...我最喜歡的兒時回憶就是 呃...
因為小時候爸爸媽媽不給我們吃零食
呃...所以呢我們就特別想要偷吃
然後我哥哥呢就會拿錢然後讓我去那個雜貨店買零食吃
然後走到家門口的時候呢
他就會二樓呢吊了一個塑膠袋下來
我把所有偷買的零食呢 就放在袋子裏面
然後他從一樓吊回二樓去 這樣偷渡了很多次
所以我小時候吃了好多零食
這是我最喜歡的兒時回憶
我覺得很溫馨又可愛 謝謝.

Hello teacher, I'm Lily from class B.
Today I'm interviewing my mom.
The topic is her favorite childhood memory.
Mom, you can start now.

My favorite childhood memory,
back then my mom and dad didn’t give us snacks
so we really wanted to eat them in secret
My brother would give me money to take to the grocery store to buy snacks
and when I’d get back to the front door
he bring a plastic bag down from the second floor
and I’d put all secretly bought snacks in the plastic bag.
Then he’d hoist it from the first floor up to the second floor.
We smuggled snacks in so many times like this
so I ate a lot of snacks as a kid.
This is my favorite childhood memory.
I find it heartwarming and cute.
Thank you.

ARTIST STATEMENT

What is the artwork about? (Short explanation)
藝術品, 是具藝術價值的創意物品, 它可以是實物如油畫, 也可以是無法觸摸的, 如一首音樂, 儲存於電腦網路伺服器.
A work of art is a creative object with artistic value, it can be a physical object such as an oil painting, or it can be intangible, such as a piece of music, stored on a computer network server.

What can you see in the picture?
我可以看到粉色的中型車在小巷中行駛, 墨綠色的紅綠燈提醒著人們行駛的時機, 宗咖啡色的小賣部和刷新的住宅, 淡灰色中泛著暗灰色的老舊住宅 這就是我故事中主角的房屋, ㄧ邊半透明的窗戶成了他們兒時的作案工具, 淡粉色的地板加上湛藍色的天空, ㄧ幅帶著滿滿童年回憶的畫作就完成了.
I can see pink mid-size cars driving down the alleys, dark green traffic lights reminding people to drive, brown shops and refreshment shops, old houses in dark and light grays. This is my story, the protagonist's house, the translucent windows on the side became their childhood crime tools, the pale pink floor and the blue sky, a painting complete with childhood memories.

What was your goal when making this artwork?
我製作這幅畫一方面是為了完成課堂中的任務, 另一方面是為了讓這故事的當事人回味她這美好又溫馨的童年時光.
I made this painting on the one hand to complete the task in the class, and on the other hand to let the person in this story reminisce about her beautiful and warm childhood.

How do you want the viewer to feel when they look at your interview, transcript, and artwork?
我希望他們能回想起童年時那天真無邪的時光, 並將這永遠的放在他的心中.
I hope they can recall the innocent time of childhood and keep it in their heart forever.

What else do you want viewers around the world to know about your artwork?
是的, 我希望我的觀眾們能了解我製作這幅畫的意義, 如果我的觀眾已是成人, 我希望他可以將他美好的兒時回憶烙印在他的心中, 但如果我的觀眾還未成年, 我希望他能在這最美好的時光中創造更多回憶, 並好好的珍惜.
I want my audience to understand what I mean by making this picture. If my viewer is an adult, I hope they can imprint their own fond childhood memories, but if my viewer is still a child, I hope they can create more memories during their prime and cherish them well.
