失敗之書＿The Book of Failure by Astor Lai
失敗是什麼形狀
是一連串的數字嗎
還是一個獎項
是誰對你的肯定與否定
還是誰的眼神透露了什麼
也許是今天早上
也許是持續了好幾年的感受
What is the shape of failure.
Is it a series of numbers?
or an award?
Who is affirming and denying you
whose eyes are telling you a message
maybe this morning
Maybe it's a feeling that lasted for years
Feel like a failure

都市心理病最後一個系列「失敗之書」靈感是來自於2015年藝術家賴冠傑對於自我價值青黃不接的時期，為何所有的書籍都在記錄成功的故事、成功的人，如果可以的話想編輯一本關於失敗故事的書籍。但這個想法沈寂了7年，終於在2021年「目光感官具象立體書」完成之後，轉換成立體書接續創作。
8個獨立的立體書畫面故事，如芒刺在背的骨刺、眾人汲取巨人屍體的養分、如同被分裂般的現代女性認同、你需要更多時間金錢才能成功、天堂與地獄都在跳與不跳之間，種種的故事串聯成失敗之書。
The last series of Urban Mental Illness, “The Book of Failure", was inspired by the artist Astor Lai (Lai, Guan-Chieh) in 2015 when his self-worth was indifferent. Why are all books recording success stories and successful people? If possible, I would like to edit a book about failure. But this idea has been silent for 7 years, and finally, after the completion of the “GAZE a pop-up book" in 2021, it will be converted into a pop-up book to continue the creation.
8 independent pop-up book graphic stories, such as the thorns on the back, the crowd absorbs the nutrients of the giant's corpse, the modern female identity as divided, you need more time and money to succeed, heaven and hell are between jumping and not jumping , all kinds of stories linked together into a book of failure.
