Flip to any chapter-and you just might find the inspiration you didn't know you needed.

「惡托邦」（Cacotopias）作為曾建穎2020年個展的名稱，如實反映了他近期諸多作品的景觀。相對於「烏托邦」（utopia）所寓含的美好，是一個可望不可即，純屬想像或虛擬，並不真實存在的空間，惡托邦更接近傅柯（Michel Foucault, 1926-1984）所提的「異質空間」（heterogeneous space）或「異托邦」（heterotopia），實際存在於現實世界的某處。 曾建穎新作中的畫面，大多籠罩在暗黑與陰森之中，讓人感覺魅影幢幢，還瀰漫著詭譎的末日氛圍。啟蒙或成年相關的主題，逐漸從他的生命世界淡出。年少終也長成，面對的是已知不美好，越來越擾攘，令人焦慮、不安，充滿危機變數的當代現實。 以身體作為感知世界的介質，曾建穎對於性別、膚色、身體認同，以及涉及專制父權（乃至於母權）的課題，一直敏感而深有體會。再現為畫面的敘事，他以看似間接的劇場扮裝手法表達，卻不十分保留，直指人性深層地帶的變態之惡。 隨著生命閱歷的增長，曾建穎將個人體察世界的感知經驗，具象地顯形與轉化，建立了自己的「無聲戲」劇場。面對當代的現實議題，反映個人觀照，以及對他人的注意，他以情境再造的形式手段，在畫中重新造景。人物甚至顛覆現實，扮相華麗、誇張，甚至虛幻、超現實，讓觀者感覺經歷一場穿越時空的如夢戲劇。透過戲中人的眼神、舉手、投足，觀者揣摩他們的情境遭遇，也反芻人心與瞭解世界。

本書是繪本大師 Jan Brett 最廣為人知的經典作品之一，改寫自烏克蘭民間故事。一隻在雪地裡遺失的白色手套，悄悄展開一場溫柔又滑稽的冒險。男孩尼基毫無察覺地往前走，而森林裡的動物卻一個接一個鑽進手套裡，從鼴鼠、兔子到熊，每一次「再擠一點點」都讓畫面更熱鬧。書頁邊框同時描繪尼基在林間行走的身影，讓讀者一邊閱讀，一邊發現兩條故事線的巧妙交錯。細膩而充滿民族風格的插畫，讓冬日雪景既安靜又生動，使本書成為適合反覆共讀的冬季經典，也入選《The Atlantic》必讀童書書單。In this bestselling modern classic, a young boy’s lost mitten leads to a charming snowy adventure.
