The existence of superfluous matters is perhaps, to contain our inappropriate, overabundant thoughts.
Superfluous Matters by Rose Wei is a collection of poetry, proses and images. Objects of indefinite forms linger within pages, they softly speak about moments, fragments, and beliefs that seem to slip into irrelevance.
Colours emerge within French-fold pages, leaving only b&w text and images on the surface. Readers are confronted with the choice of holding on or destroying the book, making it as superfluous as the very objects it seeks to describe.
長物的存在，或許是為了寄放非分的、多餘的思緒。
Rose 創作的《長物》集成了詩歌、散文與圖像。不絕對的物件在書頁間游離，細說著那些似乎逐漸成為無關緊要的過去，片刻和信念。
顏色隱匿於法式摺頁之間，表面只剩下黑白圖文。當讀者為了窺探內容而選擇保存或摧毀書籍時，書本也將成為一件「長物」。
