宮廟在台灣社會中扮演著重要的使命，不僅是宗教信仰的象徵、文化的據點，更是民眾情感的聚焦之地。

「香火」在士林神農宮的呈現中，扮演著多重角色，每一縷燃燒的「香火」，像是神明與人心之間的微妙聯繫，映照出對神明的虔敬與對生活的信仰與祈願。這些線條交織著，以其流動的形態和輕盈的視覺景象，引導信眾進入一種冥想和沉思之境，為他們與神明的交流創造了一片靈動的氛圍。

藝術家林靖格透過這件作品，深探宗教藝術在現代社會的新角色與意義。作品成為了一個連接過去與未來、傳統與創新、人與神的橋樑，呈現台灣傳統文化與宮廟信仰深厚融合的精神。

 

廟內的三座天井，每一座懸掛著獨特造型與象徵意象的「香火」作品：從左至右依次是象徵財富的元寶、象徵豐收的稻穗，及象徵平安的太歲符。隨著日夜交替和光影的變幻，它們彷彿在空間中編織出迷人的光景。

Temples play a crucial role in Taiwanese society, serving not only as symbols of religious belief and cultural landmarks but also as focal points of communal emotions.

"Incense," presented at Shilin Shennong Temple, assumes multiple roles. Each wisp of burning incense symbolizes a delicate connection between deities and human hearts, reflecting reverence towards the divine and aspirations in life. These intertwining lines, with their fluid forms and ethereal visual imagery, guide worshippers into a realm of meditation and contemplation, creating a dynamic atmosphere for their communion with the divine.

Through this artwork, artist Lin Jing-Ge delves into the new roles and meanings of religious art in contemporary society. The piece becomes a bridge that connects the past and future, tradition and innovation, and humanity with the divine, embodying the profound integration of Taiwan's traditional culture and temple beliefs.

In the temple's three courtyards, each is adorned with unique forms and symbolic representations of "Incense and Worship" artworks: from left to right, symbolizing wealth with ingots, abundance with rice ears, and peace with the Grand Duke's Seal. As day turns to night and light dances across them, they weave enchanting scenes in the space.
