新竹六燃,全名新竹日本海軍第六燃料廠。於 1944 年 5 月建立,是新竹市最早有系統且大規模建設的軍事工業基地,作為二戰時期日本在台灣設置之重要海軍燃料廠,也是當時亞洲最先進的高科技軍事工業設施之一。主要任務為生產提收戰機燃油性能的異辛烷,廠區面積共 290 公頃。
其空間最明顯的地標,是作為廠區的主要發電廠,俗稱「大煙囪」。高度 60 公尺(約 20 層樓), 約有半世紀是新竹平原上最高的建築構造。二戰結束後,新竹支廠則在 1954 年由空軍工程聯隊自建為眷舍,名為「忠貞新村」。居住在眷村的民眾。多為國民政府的第一代軍人,抱著總有一天可以回大陸老家的期待,卻一待就超過了半世紀,這些在當年設定為「臨時」居所的空間,成為眷村第二代的「老家」,也形塑了忠貞新村居民複雜心境的時空背景。
距離六燃數百公尺處的新竹建功國小,對孩童而言,鄰近住家與學校的大煙囪,顯然是個被遺忘的、不具意義性的二戰紀念碑,使我產生想藉由他們的視角去觀察六燃的想法。以開設工作坊的形式發放給孩童底片相機, 讓他們尋找並拍攝能聯想到六燃的照片,像是玩躲貓貓,去拼湊一個不存在的「大煙囪」,最後將所有人的照片整理並編輯成攝影小誌:《ㄇㄠㄇㄠ》。
Hsinchu Sixth Fuel Factory, was established in May 1944, and was the first military industrial base in Hsinchu to have a systematic and large-scale construction. It was an important naval fuel plant set up by Japan in Taiwan during World War II, and was one of the most advanced high-tech military industrial facilities in Asia at that time. The main mission of the plant is to produce isooctane to improve the fuel performance of warplanes, and the area of the plant is 290 hectares.
The landmark of the space is the main power plant, commonly known as "The Chimney". With a height of 60 meters (about 20 stories), it is the tallest structure on the Hsinchu Plain for about half a century. After the end of World War II, the Hsinchu Branch Factory was built by the Air Force Engineering Group as a family house in 1954 and was called "Zhongzhenxin Village". The people who lived in the village were mostly the first-generation soldiers of the Nationalist government, who had the expectation that they would one day return to their hometown in China, but stayed there for more than half a century.
JianGong Primary School, which is located hundred meters away from the factory, to the children, "The Chimney", which is close to their homes and schools, is clearly a forgotten and meaningless monument to World War II. In the form of a workshop, each child was given a film camera and asked to take pictures that reminded them of the factory, like a game of hide and seek, to piece together "The Chimney" that doesn't exist.

與國小孩子們對話的過程,了解到他們對於空間的認識趨近於零,大煙囪顯然是個被遺忘的、不具意義性的二戰紀念碑。面對孩子們對於歷史的遺忘與無感,此時歷史的書寫究竟意味著什麼?於六燃空間中觀察到牆面上的壁紙痕跡,儘管實體的壁紙早已脫落破損,但表面的花紋卻在數十年的時間,穿透了原先乘載的壁紙,清晰的拓印在水泥牆。像是這裡曾經作為某一群人的「家屋」所存在過的痕跡。如果將孩童作為未來記憶的建構者,以帶有童趣的方式去講述嚴肅的歷史,那麼我們是否可以藉由他們的眼睛去拼裝出一種朝向未來的「時間文獻」,一段關於六燃未來的回聲,如同被時間拓印在牆面上的壁紙花紋。
將作品展呈於鄰近新竹六燃的新竹市鐵道藝術村,以展覽的形式開放讓新竹市民認識自身生活「被遺忘的空間」,進而產生更多對話的可能性。
