This volume presents the artistic work of Chun Wai created in France in the 1980s-1990s. Like the exhibition Adrift in Time―Photography by Chun Wai at the University Museum and Art Gallery, The University of Hong Kong, the publication has documentary value as a photographic record of the past and the passing of time.This physical and philosophical journey caused the artist to realize that his insights into the relationship suspended between predestination and chance were leading to an expansive form of loneliness―a state he felt was similar to the torment experienced by the ancient Chinese poets. Chun wandered the streets and alleys of great cultural centres like Paris discovering the collections of its great museums, art galleries and flea markets, along with the vast memories contained within, preserved and passed on through the course of time.此展覽目錄為秦偉 1990 年代於法國的藝術創作之結集，圖片記載著作者對過去及已流逝的時間的回溯，具有文本價值。透過這趟旅程，秦偉深悟人生乃在宿命與偶遇之間，頓感中國古代詩人飄泊孤寂之感。他遊走於文化之都 ― 巴黎，穿梭於街巷、博物館、美術館和跳蚤市場，浪遊於浩瀚的記憶和時間的長河。
《愛麗絲漫遊奇境記》（Alice in Wonderland），又名《愛麗絲夢遊仙境》，是英國數學家查爾斯．路特維奇．道奇森，以筆名路易斯．卡羅於一八六五年創作的一部兒童文學作品，亦是路易斯．卡羅最具影響力的童話故事。《愛麗絲漫遊奇境記》是作者與友人及三位姊妹於泰晤士河同遊時，為了消磨時間，就應三位姊妹的要求，講了一個「越荒誕越好」的幻想冒險故事，故事的主角正好就是三姊妹之中的二女兒愛麗絲。事後同船的友人，以及與故事主角同名的愛麗絲，希望作者能把故事寫下來。於是，作者就在一八六五年以筆名路易斯．卡羅出版《愛麗絲漫遊奇境記》。至今，已被翻譯為一百七十四種語言出版。《愛麗絲鏡中奇遇》（Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There），又名《鏡中奇緣》，是作者於一八七一年創作出版的，也是《愛麗絲漫遊奇境記》的續集。
