銅雕 Copper / L82×W32×H41
本作象徵時光飛逝、呼籲觀者把握光陰。「逝者如斯」語出《論語》子罕篇：「子在川上曰：『逝者如斯夫，不舍晝夜。』」意味生命中的時光、事物快速消逝，一如川流不息。整體造形圓融，渾然天成。空間感的設計頗有山水寫意之趣，後方山勢雕鑿尤為大氣磅礴，彷彿遠觀雲霧飄渺，群山層巒疊嶂，在靜與動對比之間，而時光荏苒，逝者如斯。
This work symbolizes the fleeting passage of time and urges viewers to seize the moment. The phrase "The Passing of Time" comes from The Analects of Confucius (Chapter: Zi Han), where it is written: "The Master stood by the river, and he said, 'How it flows on, never ceasing, day and night!'" It reflects the swift and relentless flow of life, much like the continuous current of a river. The piece as a whole is harmonious and natural, with a spatial design that evokes the beauty of traditional Chinese landscape painting. The sculpted mountains in the background are grand and imposing, resembling mist-covered peaks. In the contrast between stillness and motion, time slips by, as the title was named, The Passing of Time.
