Endless tools exist to prevent us from getting lost—maps, apps, signs—all promising certainty, efficiency, and the shortest path from A to B. But for a commuter in this relentless city, what if navigation could mean something else? Departing from observations, thoughts, and questions drawn from her daily commute through subterranean MTR spaces, Chen’s zine, 迷路盒: A mapping box of getting lost, is a series of map boxes that each serve as a portal—an invitation —to find fragments of imagination hidden in transit. These boxes interact with readers to re-encounter their daily commuting journey, and to mobilise their senses in the seemingly homogeneous space and the passive stillness of being inside a moving train.

確保我們不會迷路的工具數之不盡──地圖、手機應用程式、路牌，皆可準確便捷地引路，並提供從A點到B點的最短路徑。但對一個身處鬧市的通勤者而言，導航還可以有甚麼意義？陳默取材於乘搭港鐵、進出地底空間的日常，糅合觀察、思考和提問，創作小誌《迷路盒》，以一系列地圖盒作為入口，引領參加者在通勤途中，尋找隱身於周遭的想像碎片。這些盒子與讀者互動，引導他們重新感受日常的通勤之旅，在看似單一的空間喚醒感官，脫離作為乘客的被動狀態。
