岵(粵音:互),草木茂密的山;屺(粵音:起),草木淍零的山。

《詩經 · 魏風 · 陟岵》:「陟彼岵兮,瞻望父兮。陟彼屺兮,瞻望母兮。」

遊子陟岵陟屺思念至親。然岵亦成屺,子已成殮,獨墳猶在。

此系列作品將持續以繪畫方式紀錄香港山間各式失祭墳墓。

It was recorded in "The Book of Songs (Shi Jing)" that descendants walked across the lush mountain to reminisce the father, and to the wilted mountain to commemorate the mother. Yet when the time goes by, the lush mountain becomes a wilted one, and the descendant becomes a decedent himself, only the graves remain present.

This set of work would continuously depicts various kinds of forgotten graves across Hong Kong mountains.
