〈紙廠A4〉源自於2022年得知位於新北市板橋浮洲的舊臺北紙廠部分廢墟空間即將拆除，並改建為社會住宅。過去，這座廢墟曾作為學生自發創作與活動的替代空間，而我也曾於其中進行創作與觀看。因此，在空間消失之前，我以攝影記錄其最後樣貌，作為一種對即將消逝建築的影像凝視。

作品以紙廠內原紙漿槽所在位置為拍攝對象，透過中片幅相機與中心構圖，採取近似紀實攝影的觀看方式，記錄廢墟空間中的結構、尺度與殘留痕跡。影像試圖保持一種中性的觀看位置，使建築本身成為被凝視的主體。

展呈時，我以簡易燈管搭配未裝裱的燈片呈現影像，回應紙廠成為廢墟後所呈現出的簡陋、破敗與空置狀態。在攝影燈片的透視構圖中央，我保留一塊A4尺寸的留白，呼應舊臺北紙廠過去生產紙張的歷史，同時也指向建築消失後留下的空缺。透過影像中的空白，作品將紙張作為物質與空間的關係重新連結，轉化為一種對消逝場所的觀看。


Paper Factory A4 originates from the discovery in 2022 that parts of the former Taipei Paper Factory ruins, located in Fuzhou, Banqiao, New Taipei City, were scheduled for demolition and redevelopment into social housing. Previously, the abandoned site had served as an alternative space for self-organised artistic practices and activities by students, and I had also created and observed within this environment. Before its disappearance, I documented the final state of the site through photography, as an act of sustained observation toward an architecture on the verge of being erased.

The work focuses on the former pulp tanks within the factory, using a medium-format camera and centralised composition to adopt an observational approach close to documentary photography. Through this method, the structure, scale, and residual traces of the ruin are recorded. The image maintains a neutral position of observation, allowing the architecture itself to emerge as the primary subject of the gaze.

For the installation, photographic transparencies are presented without frames alongside simple fluorescent lighting, reflecting the improvised, deteriorating, and vacant condition of the factory after its abandonment. At the centre of the perspectival composition within the photographic transparency, an A4-sized area of blank space is preserved. This absence refers both to the factory’s former production of paper and to the void left after the disappearance of the architecture. Through this deliberate emptiness, the work reconnects paper as both material and spatial concept, transforming the image into a meditation on the act of witnessing a vanishing place.
