關渡自然公園內飛入了多個幽浮飛行物，停駐在自然中心入口，它們看起來像是一個群體，究竟出現在此的目的為何？
這些幽浮都是大型的碟狀物體，在它們簡單而輕巧的圓型結構上，覆蓋著一些可在關渡自然公園內發現的材料，這可能是蘆葦、稻草、綠葉、棕葉，細樹枝或竹子等……，每個光盤各自承載著其中一類的材料。因此，多種多樣的自然色彩，以及屬於大自然的氣味，開始存在這棟建築物內。
A large number of UFOs is floating through the high space of the Guandu Nature Centre Entrance Hall. They seem to have come from outside. They are unknow objects, but they are wearing familiar surfaces. They have a strange artificial shape, but at the same time they are made from the material of the sourrounding park.
What are they doing here? Is nature coming into this building to visit? Are the UFOs ready to take over? Or are they here to remind us that nature is something that should be taken care of?
By combinig an image of the science fiction world with something very pure and natural, the work UFOs is playing with these questions.
The UFOs are large discs, that are hanging from the ceiling. They have the shape of lenses. All have different sizes and hang in different angles on long strings from up above.
They have a simple light wooden structure, fortified with strong wire and covered with a fine wire-net (chicken wire). The wire net is densly covered with some material that has been found in the park. This could be reed, rice straw, green leafs, brown leafs, grass, wine, thin branches, bamboo etc...Each of the discs is wearing one of these materials. Thus a wide variety of natural colors and structures and smells is present inside the building.
The actual number and sizes of the UFOs will depend on the available space for the installation in the entrance hall, and will only be decided after having seen the place in real.
