『具體而微』 是 創作者李柏廷透過自身疾病經驗以及對社會的觀察結合而成的系列作品。定期輸血是他對抗自身先天性地中海貧血的生活方式，這樣強制的方式才可以使失衡的身體 保持運作，也是他的身體必須遵守的強制自然。對照存在於社會體制內的我們，企圖衝破現有社會的規則，透過網路文化發聲，為失序的群體社會建立平行的對話機制，在虛實轉換間的我們，在真空的虛擬世界，跨出螢幕框架後的我們，是否也因而產生了現在失衡的生活狀態。 

展覽中，每件作品都從不同病徵出發，存在著一個小群體，各自有其運作的模式，分別獨立出身體失衡的片段；他們仍習以為常地運作著這個有瑕疵的系統。除了各自獨立的系統外，作品間也透過互動存在有連動性，而觀者也扮演著身體中重要的外在變因。每件作品中出現的人群，都是疾病因子的縮影，他們組成社會，與被投影物共生，成為一種政治結構。

繼2011年以XOR團隊發表數位藝術表演獎『死亡的過程』後，這次他以個展的方式將動力影像裝置結合3D列印，繼續從身體的故事出發，以數位的方式解析人類的內心深層，直探隱藏心靈的錮臼，對比出我們持續對抗現今失衡的社會、工作與生活而衍生的強制自然。

 

"The Miniature System" is a series of works by Lee, Po-Ting based on a combination of his own illness experience and social observation. As a patient of thalassemia, he needs blood transfusions regularly in his daily life. With the mandatory treatment, he can keep the body functioning well and comply with the laws of nature. Compared with us living in the society system, we attempt to break the social rules by voicing ourselves through the internet culture and creating parallel conversations for a disorderly society so that we convert between fiction and reality in a vacuum virtual world, behind the screen framework resulting in a state of imbalance of living.

In the exhibition, every piece of work was created from different symptoms. Each small group has its mode of operation and independent fragment of imbalanced body. They are used to operate with this flawed system. Except for the independent system, there are connections between works by interaction; the audience is also an important role of the variables of body. The crowd appearing in each piece is the epitome of the disease factor; they formed society and coexist with the object to be projected and become a political structure.

After participating in the 2nd Digital Arts Performance Award by ”The Process of Death” under the name XOR, he combined the kinetic installation with 3D printing in the solo exhibition. Continued with the story of human body, he analyzed the deepest side within human's heart and destroyed the prison of soul through the method of digital art, then contrast to the disorderly society, jobs, life which derived the forced nature that we keep trying to confront nowadays.
