小心翼翼地沿著軌道走了很久
終究走不到另一個人的心上
到頭來才發現一切都是虛構的
終究走不到另一個人的心上
到頭來才發現一切都是虛構的
人與人終究無法百分之百的理解
也許如卡繆筆下的薛西弗斯明知推石上山般徒勞
但我們依舊用某種方式努力著
試圖再靠近一點
永遠無法抵達
但並不因此失去意義。
浩瀚宇宙裡佈滿了一顆顆寂寞的心星
-
Walking carefully along the tracks for so long,
Only to find I could never reach the other's heart.
In the end, it was all an illusion.
We can never understand each other one hundred percent.
Perhaps it is like Sisyphus, as Camus wrote—
Pushing a boulder up the mountain, knowing it is in vain.
And yet, we keep trying in our own ways,
Attempting to get just a little bit closer.
Never arriving,
But never losing meaning.
In the vast universe, lonely hearts scatter like stars.

「人與人之間是無法完全理解的。」
隨著年紀增長，我愈來愈覺得《新世紀福音戰士》裡的那句話沒有錯
《駭客任務》闡述的夢幻泡影、
走訪過的水漾森林、
木瓜山廢棄的哈崙鐵道、
伍佰的〈挪威的森林〉、
《大佛普拉斯》的那句：
走訪過的水漾森林、
木瓜山廢棄的哈崙鐵道、
伍佰的〈挪威的森林〉、
《大佛普拉斯》的那句：
「雖然人都可以到月球了，但是卻無法進入別人的小宇宙。」
以及薛西弗斯的神話，
都以不同的方式參與了《斷軌III》的形成。
交織生長成了這樣的畫中風景，
成為那一顆顆懸浮於宇宙深處的心星。

"People can never completely understand one another."
As I grow older, I find myself agreeing more and more with that line from Neon Genesis Evangelion.
The grand illusion depicted in The Matrix,
my trekking through the sunken beauty of the Wangyang Forest,
the abandoned Halun Railway on Mount Mugua,
Wu Bai’s song "Norwegian Forest,"
and that poignant quote from the movie The Great Buddha+:
"Humans can travel to the moon, yet we can never enter another person's inner universe."
Along with Sisyphus’s myth, they have all contributed to the birth of Broken Rails III. Intertwined, they grew into this landscape within the painting, becoming those solitary stars floating in the deep void of space.

關於畫中角色「沒有名字的小傢伙」
藝術家林葆靈筆下的「沒有名字的小傢伙」誕生於 2006 年。他無名、赤裸、帶著傷、無瞳孔，有著很深的黑眼圈、無手指，總是出沒在夜色中。這小傢伙有時哭，有時笑，時而迷茫，時而頑強。他不僅在黑暗裡摸索尋找光與溫暖，也試著自己創造它們，並學習與黑暗共處。
歡迎點擊下方相簿，瀏覽小傢伙歷年來的畫作軌跡，一同探索他在黑暗中尋光的旅程：

About the Character in the Painting "The Nameless Little Guy"
"The Nameless Little Guy," a character brought to life by artist Lin Bao Ling in 2006, is nameless, naked, scarred, and pupilless, characterized by deep dark circles around his eyes and a lack of fingers. Constantly wandering through the night, he sometimes weeps, sometimes smiles, at times lost in bewilderment, and at others, fiercely resilient. He not only gropes through the darkness in search of light and warmth, but also strives to create them himself, learning to coexist with the dark.
