《美國式與歌德》取材自格蘭特・伍德描繪美國鄉村精神的經典之作。原作以筆直站立的男女與背景哥德式建築，呈現出一種內斂、堅定而帶有距離感的生活氣質。本次聯名在這樣克制的氛圍中，融入台灣特有種——龜殼花的意象。龜殼花棲息於低海拔山區與人類生活邊界，外表低調，卻具有強烈的生存能力與警覺性，是台灣常見且具有代表性的原生蛇類。

American Gothic draws from Grant Wood’s iconic portrayal of the American rural spirit. Through the upright figures and the Gothic-style house in the background, the original painting conveys a restrained, resolute, and somewhat distant quality of life. In this collaboration, that controlled atmosphere is infused with the image of a Taiwanese native species—the Chinese habu. Found in low-elevation mountain areas and along the edges of human habitation, the habu appears understated, yet possesses strong survival instincts and sharp vigilance, making it one of Taiwan’s most familiar and representative native snakes.
