作品說明(中文)

作品以羽翼和蜂巢為主題造型,呼應除役的「工蜂六型」火箭砲筒的軍武精神。火箭筒切割鍛焊為蜂的翅膀,鋼構在交錯間組成了家的意象,將保國、護土的精神化為守護的羽翼,使得羽翼庇護下的人民與家園皆能樂業安居。
蜂巢的設計概念適切的展現在大理石椅與六角形抿石子基座的造型上,期待軍民能以蜂的團結精神齊力共同守護這塊土地。

作品說明(英文)

The main stylistic components of this work are wings and honeycomb shapes, echoing the militaristic spirit of the “Kung-Feng VI” rocket launcher. The launcher cuts across the forged weld to form bee’s wings and the overlapping elements of the steel structure create an image of home. The sacred mission of the military to protect the nation is represented by a pair of protective wings, under which people live and work in the knowledge that they and their families are safe.
The honeycomb design is reflected in the shape of the marble chairs and hexagonal pebble base. The bee motif is also an expression of the much desired unity of military and people, as they work together to protect this land.
