When the ice bath is viewed as an action, it is framed as an event that takes place. In the eye of the story, we see a frozen temporality in which neither image, text nor video are any more, but only the action itself. What cannot be ignored is that the human body becomes a mediator in this process, undergoing changes in bodily perception, each person having their own unique experience that is fascinating to observe verbally or through words. And how the body interacts with the temperature and the water becomes a proposition: is it the stimulation that brings the body into action, or is it the accumulation of the psychological level, as in the case of photographic exposure, we always ignore the process of that moment, so how to decipher the frozen image?

當冰浴被視爲一個動作時，它就被定格爲一個正在發生的事件。在故事的眼中，我們看到的是一種凝固的時間性，其中不再有圖像、文字或視頻，只有動作本身。不容忽視的是，在這一過程中，人體成爲中介，身體感知發生變化，每個人都有自己獨特的體驗，這種體驗通過語言或文字進行觀察是非常迷人的。而身體如何與溫度和水互動則成爲一個命題：是刺激讓身體開始行動，還是心理層面的積累，就像攝影曝光一樣，我們總是忽略了那一刻的過程，那麼如何解凍定格的影像呢？

This is the trailer of the work.
