family。依。
A pair of chopsticks is considered as a symbol of good fortune in Chinese culture. It is not only because a set of two (things that are used together or regarded as a unit) is regarded as lucky (especially for married couples as 'a pair' ), but also the pronunciation of chopsticks in Chinese language is similar to 'welcoming the babies soon'.
在佳琳的作品裡經常出現的元素，除了米粒之外，還有竹子。竹子是製造筷子的原料，是與米有著密切關係的物件；在翻閱中文字典的時候，我偶然發現「竹」與「米」正好是前後相鄰的兩個部首；而在科學分類之中，竹子與稻，是同科（family）的植物。
筷子總是成雙成對，在婚嫁娶習俗中又是「快快得子」的吉祥象徵；那麼，再沒有誰比它更適合出演父母親的角色了!
Bamboo is another vital element, which appears frequently with rice, in Carolynn's art works. In scientific classification, bamboo and rice have close relationship to each other as they are in the same family, as well as chopsticks to rice in Chinese culture. So I used a pair of chopsticks and a rice pearl for the piece, as they are representing parents and the child(ren).
