掘金者是一个探索好奇心和发现世界的装置。这是2021年 “A Cel Obert “艺术节的主题,这个短暂的干预艺术节自2014年以来每年在加泰罗尼亚的托尔托萨市举行。该艺术节旨在将未知的历史空间转变为艺术创作的舞台,并通过短暂的艺术来重拾城市的建筑遗产。

Gold Digger is an installation that explores the world of curiosity and discovery. This was the theme of the 2021 edition of the festival “A Cel Obert”, a festival of ephemeral interventions that has been held annually since 2014 in the city of Tortosa in Catalonia. The festival aims at transforming unknown historical spaces into a stage for artistic creations and reclaiming the architectural heritage of the city through ephemeral art.

该装置位于Patio de Sant Jordi和Sant Domènec dels Reials Colégis。这个空间用于教育摩尔人,是16世纪的遗产,是城市经济和社会辉煌的时期。

The installation is located in the Patio de Sant Jordi and Sant Domènec dels Reials Colégis. This space served to educate the Moors and is a legacy of the 16th century, a period of economic and social splendor in the city.

作品的组成包括一块由112条热毯组成的大布,占据了Patio de Sant Jordi和Sant Domènech的空间。该装置试图突出材料的内在质量,并创造两个不同的面,象征着两个空间的二元性:热-冷,光-影,金-银。

The composition of the work consists of a large cloth made up of 112 thermal blankets that occupy the space of the Patio de Sant Jordi and Sant Domènech. The installation seeks to highlight the inherent quality of the material and create two different faces that symbolize the duality between two spaces: hot-cold, light-shadow, gold-silver.

织物的金色面朝向庭院的内部,银色面朝向建筑。通过这种方式,织物在院子的外部和内部之间形成了明显的色差。

The golden side of the fabric faces the interior of the courtyard, the silver side faces the building. In this way, the fabric creates a clear chromatic difference between the exterior and the interior of the courtyard.

织物被悬挂在离地面1.30米的地方。光线通过在织物上刺入的直径为60厘米的圆孔穿透到战略点上。

The fabric is suspended 1.30 meters above the floor. The light penetrates through circular holes 60 centimeters in diameter pierced into the fabric at strategic points.

用户进入装置时的第一印象是一个黑暗和寒冷的空间,这是由织物的银色一面创造的。然而,孔洞产生的光点邀请用户去探索另一面的东西。为了获得光线,用户必须弯下腰,从织物下面进入。

The first impression the user has when entering the installation is that of a dark and cold space, created by the silver side of the fabric. However, the points of light produced by the holes invite the user to explore what is on the other side. To access the light, the user must necessarily bend down and step enter under the fabric.

透过其中一个孔,用户发现院子里的发光世界是由织物的金色表面创造的。在里面,游客还可以欣赏到从织物的其他孔洞中窥视的国王雕像。此外,托尔托萨不断的微风吹动织物,创造出新的光线反射和让人联想到海浪的声音。

Looking through one of the holes, the user discovers the luminous world inside the courtyard, created by the golden surface of the fabric. Inside, visitors can also admire the statues of kings peeking through the other holes in the fabric. Furthermore, the constant breeze of Tortosa moves the fabric, creating new light reflections and a sound that is reminiscent of ocean waves.

该装置的颜色和效果根据一天中的不同时间而变化。中午时分,光线从上方直接落下,织物的反射使观众视线模糊。另一方面,在日落时分,织物的金色呈现出新的色调,更加细腻和粉红。

The color and effect of the installation change depending on the time of day. At midday, the light falls directly from above and the reflection of the fabric blinds the viewer. At sunset, on the other hand, the golden color of the fabric takes on new shades, more delicate and pink.

参观者有机会与该装置积极互动。他们不仅可以欣赏院子里文艺复兴时期装饰品的雕塑细节,还可以与其他参观者互动。

Visitors had the opportunity to actively interact with the installation. They could not only admire the sculptural details of the Renaissance ornaments in the courtyard but also interact with the other visitors.
