文獻摘錄

“千佛崖位在縣治北十里，嘉陵江東岸，大小四百龕，延綿里許，蓮宮紺髻，輝濯巖扉，至為壯觀。……龕之面積，以一公尺左右居多；二三公尺者較少；三公尺以上者，寥寥十數處而已。較大之窟，除主像外，壁面遍鑿小龕，窟頂飾以蓮瓣，頗類龍門諸窟，唯造像作風，仍屬盛唐一派。最特別者，中型之窟，每於窟中央，琢主像、侍像，或佛涅槃像，其後翼以樹木，若屏風然。壁面或鐫生死諸圖，背景襯以山氣，至極精妙，而窟內每刻功德主，跽於座下，數量之眾，為他處所少有。”

-- 梁思成 先生《佛像的歷史》

Re-Imagining and Mapping

Urban space nowadays is fragmented geographically and ideologically. Renovation and profit concern challenge the memories within. From ancient cities and their grid systems, analysis of the spirituality of the architecture, statues, graphics and calligraphy hence begins. The linkage of To-Ji Temple and Kyoto will provide a sustainable module for the future of urban planning.

重新想像詩意棲居思維

當代都會空間已因為地理及意識形態的分割，而支離破碎。都會的歷史脈絡，亦因為更新及利益考量而消散。經由古都格盤狀都市規劃，藉以分析精神性對於建築及城市規劃、 造型、圖像及文字的綜合影響力；為未來都會的可持續性規劃，提供參考。
