Etched in Cascading Light 《流光》

生活的痕跡堆疊出日子的沉積。

Traces of life accumulate to form the deposits of our days.

《剖面》、《流光》是鄭氏對駐留居住空間的觀察。鄭氏感覺自己居於一顆形狀奇特的牙齒中。牙齒能記錄一個人的所有經歷，鄭氏以此為靈感，運用無相機攝影技術（luminogram 和 photograms）創作了一系列日記式影像，拼湊成一組流水形態的影像作品。藥水如同顏料，通過影像顏色、酸鹼值、陰影，記錄當天的狀態和思緒。影像展示時，感光物質經歷退色，留下痕跡，宛如珊瑚白化。

"Deposits and Dissect" and "Etched in Cascading Light" are two artworks by Cheng that reflect her thoughts on the art residency spaces she lives in. She feels like she is inside a uniquely shaped tooth, symbolizing how a tooth can hold all of a person's memories and experiences. Using cameraless photography techniques – luminograms and photograms, Cheng created diary-like images that flow and change. She uses chemical solutions like paint to capture different moods and states of mind through colors and shadows. When displayed, these images fade over time, leaving behind marks that remind us of coral bleaching.
