1990年代網路向公眾開放大約20年的時間，我們可以想像網路世界的初始，有如原始世界。2006年，作者創造了一個「類原住民」小女孩的3D動畫，可被視為作者的自畫像。在第一個版本的《網路原民》中，呈現「類原住民」形象的小女孩，她身上與臉孔流動如原住民紋面的圖案，其實來自作者個人網站的螢幕截圖，依稀還可辨認出網頁瀏覽器的圖示與操作選單滾動而過。網頁圖像以30度角沿著小女孩身體的中心線垂直鏡射，形成「類原住民」紋面的流動圖騰，組成的圖案卻是網頁瀏覽器的圖示和介面。周遭的環境，無論植物或建築也是採相同手法構成，以網路上代表不同場域的網頁螢幕截圖來表現，例如政府單位的首頁、工商企業，民間社會團體和個人網站。此外，也有BBS，MSN和其他網路介面的螢幕截圖，可以視為代表各種不同場域的網路空間。 2008年，《網路原民》有了她自己的進化，變得更「摩登」的現代穿著，與更「像人」的身體外觀，但眼神變得空洞。穿梭遊走在快速升起又迅速崩解的網路巨型城市和網路森林中的小女孩，彷彿哥斯拉巨獸又如漫遊者般，獨自漫遊於網路世界。
附註：《網路原民》於2006-2007年的初版是三頻道投影裝置。2008-2009年的版本在國立台灣美術館，以360°環景影音呈現。單頻道播映版本則於2011年製作。
The Internet opened to the public from 1990s is about 20 years, and we can imagine the beginning of the internet as an aboriginal world. In 2006, the artist created an “aboriginal-like” little girl in 3D Animation, which can be considered as self portrait of the artist. In the first edition of this cyber native girl, the flowing pattern of her skin and dress, which is the snap-shot screen image of artist’s website shown with the browser. The website image is flipped 30 degree vertically along the central lines of her body to shape the “aboriginal-like” flowing patterns which show the “Tattoos” with icons and the interface of the browser. The surroundings of environments, the plants and buildings are made in the same ways. With screen shots of online websites such as front pages of government units, commercial enterprises, civil society groups and individual websites. Furthermore, there are also screen shots of BBS, MSN and other online interfaces can be seen as different fields and territories on the Internet. In 2008, the Cyber Native girl has her own evolution which is represented in the more “Modern-like” looks of her outfit and also the more “human-like” appearance of her body, but the eyes of her become hollow. Ambling around in the cyberspace, the Cyber Native girl, as if a giant Godzilla, a Flâneur wanders alone in the cyber world which is represented in models of super cities where are assembled swiftly and also collapsed quickly.
