茶寿是苗栗当地一个以稻草制成的茶壶保温器具，过去当地农民会在清晨提着一壶茶上山工作，仰赖茶寿的保温效果，即使到了午后也能喝到温暖的热茶。中国台湾艺术家范承宗学习茶寿的制作工艺，以数倍大的空间装置诠释，在大窝山林的崖边造起小小的茶窝，取茶寿延长温暖的意义，邀请人们入内围圈而坐，像在一壶热茶中温暖相聚，伴随其中浓厚的稻香，忆起农业时代勤奋知足亲自然的朴实生活。

Based on the Teapot Nest meaning,Lasting Warming, this artwork invite people to come inside and sit around like bathing in a cup of hot tea. With the smelling of rice, bring you back to the nature life in agrarian Taiwan society in 1970s.
