“幽灵小屋 “是位于西雅图Chophouse Row的一个特定场地装置。该装置的灵感来自于该地的历史过去–一个边疆的家园，其地基仍然位于庭院之下。通过用厚重的雪松木板重新想象边疆小屋，艺术家们向该地的历史致敬，并为公共空间创造一个焦点。
“Ghost Cabin” is a site specific installation located in Seattle’s Chophouse Row. The installation is inspired by the site’s historical past—a frontier homestead whose foundations still lie below the courtyard. By re-imagining the frontier cabin in heavy cedar planks, the artists pay homage to the site’s history and create a focal point for the public space.
该装置于2018年完成，由Chophouse Row的开发商Dunn + Hobbes的Liz Dunn和当地艺术家兼策展人Greg Lundgren委托进行。标准包括特定地点的艺术作品 “承担风险，并创造一个具有新闻价值和戏剧性的超大型视觉和内脏存在”。 人们还表达了对艺术品的强烈愿望，即为Chophouse Row院子里一个原本荒凉的角落增加 “有机的、原始的物质存在”。
Completed in 2018, the installation was commissioned by Liz Dunn of Dunn + Hobbes, developer of Chophouse Row, and Greg Lundgren, a local artist and curator. Criteria included the site-specific artwork “take risks and create an outsized visual and visceral presence that is newsworthy and dramatic.” A strong desire was also expressed for artwork that would add “an organic, primordial material presence” to an otherwise forlorn corner in the Chophouse Row courtyard.
为了创造这个装置，雪松板被应用于庭院角落边界内的各种表面，将不同的元素拼贴在一起，创造一个统一的触觉构成。扭曲的木场既是庭院空间的一个自然焦点，也是重新定位视角的背景。
To create the installation, cedar planks were applied to the various surfaces within the boundary of the courtyard corner, collaging together the disparate elements to create a unified tactile composition. The distorted field of wood comes together as both a natural focal point in the courtyard space and serves as a backdrop to reorient perspectives.
从大多数有利位置看，木屋的形状是无法辨认的–一个令人回味的、扭曲的分层木板雕塑。但是从一个精确的视点看，红柏木板瞬间重新组合起来，屋檐小屋的轮廓就显现出来了。
The cabin shape is, from most vantage points, unrecognizable—an evocative and distorted layered wood plank sculpture. But from one precise vantage point, the cedar planks momentarily re-assemble and the silhouette of the gable cabin is revealed.
