大衛・霍克尼筆下冷靜而疏離的經典場景以清澈泳池與兩個人物之間的距離，呈現觀看與被觀看、親密與隔閡之間的微妙張力。本次聯名將水面下的身影轉化為台灣特有種——穿山甲的意象。穿山甲多於夜間活動，性情隱密，長期面臨棲地破壞的威脅，是台灣重要且受保護的物種之一。

In Hockney’s iconic scene of calm detachment, the clear swimming pool and the distance between two figures express a subtle tension between seeing and being seen, intimacy and separation. In this collaboration, the figure beneath the water is reimagined as a Taiwanese endemic species—the pangolin. Nocturnal and elusive by nature, the pangolin lives largely out of sight and has long faced threats from habitat loss. It is one of Taiwan’s important protected species, carrying a quiet presence that echoes the painting’s sense of distance and hidden life.
