脫髮不一定是病態，正常人每天都會脫下50-60條頭髮。它是我身體的一部份，它每天都會死去一部份，離我而去；同時又會每天長出新的頭髮，循環不息。我開始收集我自己的脫髮，紀錄我身體某部份的死亡和出生。
Hair loss isn’t must be a kind of sickness. One person loses 50-60 hair daily usually. It is part of my body. It dies and leaves me every day. At the same time, new hair grows in a continuous cycle. I start to collect my own hair loss. Make the record of the death and the birth of certain parts of my body.
