‘‘Of what value is my soul to me?

I cannot see it. I may not touch it. I do not know it.’’

said the young Fisherman.

​

​

The Fisherman and his Soul is a picture book

adapted from Oscar Wilde's tale of the same name. 

​

For the love of a mermaid, a young fisherman wishes to abandon his soul and he did. His Soul wandered around the world alone for years, yet returned to the shore every year and called for the Fisherman.

The Soul tempted the Fisherman with good and bad to reunite with him.​

​

It's a story about the connections between love, body, and soul;

and about the human nature to have mixed emotions.

「靈魂對我來說有甚麼用呢？我看不到它，也碰不到它，更不認識它。」
 

 

這是一本關於年輕的漁夫愛上了人魚，

並為了與愛人生活在一起而捨棄了靈魂的故事。

靈魂因而隻身遊蕩了世界數年，卻年年回到岸邊呼喚著漁夫，

想方設法地想與漁夫重新團聚。

​

人魚不是故事的主角，而是身而為人的漁夫，

在生命裡面對選擇時的物質與精神的內在衡量。

貫穿繪本的海浪以不同色階的綠呈現，

描繪了情緒的各種模樣與紋路。
