对有色布料及老旧布料的现有色调进行反复性的退色处理，尽量恢复其底料本色，无论这些色彩来自于时间的侵蚀还是人为的印染。这是对物质本来面貌的一种还原企图，这个回头路的过程结果是展现出一种新旧莫名，本末难辨的物质现状，也无可避免地揭露出许多意料之外的层次，变异，以及物质与时间互动后的过程关联，我是想说，许多事物即便是最彻底的恢复也无法还原真实的本来，时间也在这个过程中变得没头没尾。

Using a special bleaching agent on old and colored fabrics, conducting a process to fade the existing fabric colors, regardless whether these colors are deriving from time erosion or man-made dyeing. The aim is to rediscover the original color of the material before coloration. It is an attempt to restore the former appearance. The result of this backward process shows a kind of new and old which is inexplicable. The ins and outs of the material status quo are hard to determine and also inevitably reveal many unexpected levels and variations, as well as the interactive process between material and time. I would say, a lot of things cannot be restored to the true original even when undergoing the most thorough restoration - starting and ending time are circulating in this process.
