我朗讀我寫的中文詩。然後我將自己隱沒到壁龕裡。將白紙黑字撕成小片﹐從草蓆往外推。請觀眾上前撿起紙片唸出其上文字﹐或者說任何些什麼。如此一張一張推出﹐觀者一個一個上來或說或念﹐直到紙片說完念完為止。

 

I read a Chinese poem written by me.  Then I went into the niche and shut myself.  I tore the papers that I read just now into pieces and pushed them outward.  The audiences were asked to pick them up and read or say anything they liked.

Yeh Tzu-chi     In & Out   

我與觀眾一一進場填滿一個空間之後﹐再一一出場。每個人進場與出場姿態各異。當所有人完全退出場後﹐場子再度恢復成空。

The audience came to join me in an empty space.  When the space was almost full of people, we started to go out of the space one by one.  Everyone had his own manner of coming in and going out.  After all left, the space became empty again.

觀眾在我身上塗抹紅色顏料。之後﹐我以美國國旗﹐荷蘭木屐﹐醫療用繃帶﹐和樹葉﹐訴說歷史台灣殖民與移民的故事。

The audience spread red color on my body.  Then I told the story of colonization and immigration in the history of Taiwan, with the flag of US, clogs of Holland, medical bandage, and leaves.

我用小女孩的玩意兒打扮自己﹐然後踩在一只小女孩的高跟木拖鞋上舞動身體﹐跌倒了﹐爬起再跳﹐跌倒了﹐爬起再跳。

I dressed up with the play things of a little girl after which I danced on her small high heel wooden clogs.  If I fell down to the ground, I would stand up to dance again.  So, fell down, stood up and danced.  Fell down, stood up, and danced.
