《鏟聲》是一個以災後行動與集體記憶為核心的設計專題。作品以「鏟子的聲音」作為象徵，記錄花蓮光復馬太鞍堰塞湖事件後，人們清理泥沙、修復家園的過程。每一次鏟子落地的聲音，都像是一段故事的開始，也是災後復原的行動。
2025年颱風造成馬太鞍堰塞湖潰壩，下游部落遭受泥水災害。災後，一句「來找一戶喜歡的玩泥巴」在社群媒體上流傳，讓救災行動變得親切而具行動力。只需要一把鏟子、一張車票，任何人都能成為「鏟子超人」。大量志工自發前往光復，協助居民清理家園，也在過程中展現出台灣社會真實而溫暖的人情力量。
《鏟聲》透過攝影紀錄、線條插畫與「鏟子超人」角色形象，整理災後現場的故事與情感，呈現人們在困境中彼此支持、共同修復生活的過程。作品希望讓觀者看見的不只是災難本身，而是災後人與人之間的行動、溫度與韌性，並將這段集體復原的記憶保存下來。
“The Sound of Shovels” is a design project centered on post-disaster action and collective memory. Using the sound of shovels as a symbolic element, the work documents the process of clearing mud and rebuilding homes after the landslide-dammed lake disaster in Mataian, Guangfu, Hualien. Each sound of a shovel striking the ground marks the beginning of a story, and an act of recovery.
In the aftermath, a phrase spread across social media—“come find a household to play in the mud with”—prompting a large number of volunteers to travel to Guangfu and assist in cleanup efforts, revealing a genuine and heartwarming spirit of mutual aid in Taiwanese society.
Through documentary photography, line-based illustrations, and the character “Shovel Heroes,” the project organizes the stories and emotions found at the disaster site. Rather than focusing solely on the disaster itself, the project highlights human action, warmth, and resilience.
