Starting with "investigation and documentation," the designer emphasizes "cultural disappearance and rebirth" and "the state of mind of people who are forced to follow the trend of the times." This work is a reflection of allegory and scenic space, hoping to bring a spatial atmosphere and message to the public and then to understand the history and story of the salt industry through experience. After a series of interviews and field research, the designer drew from the oral stories and historical documents of local salt workers and residents to create a virtual story about the development of the salt industry, in which the main characters are the epitome of salt workers. The story refers to the history of the development of the salt industry from 1938 to 2002, and the old maps are particularly searched for to compare with the modern aerial photographs. " Island No.6" is situated in the sixth production area of the old salt field more than eight decades ago, hence the name. The designer hopes that the warmth of human emotions will allow the public to feel the traces of memory and history contextually.
