Local Collective和Stigma Room–一个由建筑师、艺术家和研究人员组成的集体–已经为护肤品品牌Malin+Goetz和英格兰艺术委员会将伦敦诺丁山的一个底层零售店改造成了一个现代澡堂。
Local Collective and Stigma Room – a collective of architects, artists, and researchers – have transformed a ground floor retail into a contemporary bathhouse in Notting Hill, London, for skincare brand Malin+Goetz and the Arts Council England.
这个弹出式画廊试图通过将文化项目引入通常是以消费为主导的体验的混合使用策略，来恢复、重振和重新想象英国的高街–大流行之后。
The pop-up gallery seeks to reclaim, re-energise, and re-imagine the UK’s high streets – post-pandemic – through a mixed-used strategy of introducing cultural programme into what is usually a consumption-led experience.
策划 “造唐”（中文为澡堂），源于对亚洲身份和女权主义之间交叉的持续探索，以及亚洲澡堂作为社会交流场所的文化指控。画廊不仅作为有色人种的创作者和他们的作品接触到更广泛的社区的平台，也是对社区和文化组织的公开邀请，通过艺术进行联系，在这个公共房间举办活动，并重新获得我们街道的所有权。
The curation, “Zao Tang” (bathhouse in Chinese), stems from an ongoing exploration of the intersection between Asian identity and feminism, and the cultural charge of Asian bathhouses as a ground for social exchange. The gallery not only serves as a platform for creatives of colour and their works to reach a wider community, but also as an open invitation for communities and cultural organisations to connect through art, host activities in this public room, and reclaim ownership of our streets.
“我们希望让公众能够接触到艺术，并将其融入人们的日常表达。也许在你去邮局的路上，或者在你开会回来的路上，我们希望总有一个社交场所–你的城市客厅–在那里你可以遇见人们，加入一个工作坊，沉浸在艺术中，庆祝多样性，感受连接。” – 丽莎-陈，Local Collective的创始人。
“我们希望利用沉浸式艺术观赏体验，通过社会交流的实体化，激活社区的亲情。用艺术来连接，把城市还给当地人”。- 周书田和丁聪，污名室的联合创始人。
“We want to make art accessible for the public and blend it into people’s daily expression. Perhaps on your way to the post office or on your way back from a meeting, we hope there is always a social ground – your urban living room – where you can meet people, join a workshop, soak in art, celebrate diversity and feel connected.” – Lisa Chan, founder of Local Collective.
“We want to use the immersive art-viewing experience to activate community kinships through the physicalisation of social exchange. Use art to connect, give the city back to the locals.” – Shutian Zhou and Cong Ding, co-founders of Stigma Room.
当Local Collective和Stigma Room将画廊变成一个交织着自我、社区和遗产的当代澡堂时，艺术的接受被相遇的顺序和形式所凸显。模仿亚洲澡堂的沐浴仪式，人们被邀请首先清洁自我，通过观看Victoria Pham的视频肖像和Stigma的伪叙事，洗去成见和俗世的担忧。伴随着Malin+Goetz的佛手柑的清新气味，人们随后被邀请加入公共浴室的集体招待会，并就Hannah Lim的重新使用的鼻烟壶、Yushi Li的二元凝视和Youngsook Choi的集体悲痛进行对话。这个展览既是亲密的，也是社会的，从传统的艺术观赏渐渐变成一种沉浸式的文化体验。在这个位于伦敦波多贝罗路230号的公共澡堂加入对话。
The reception of art is accentuated by the sequence and form of encounter as Local Collective and Stigma Room transform the gallery into a contemporary bathhouse that interweaves the self, community, and heritage. Mimicking the bathing ritual in Asian bathhouses, one is invited to first cleanse the self, washing off pre-conceptions and quotidian concerns through the viewing of Victoria Pham’s video portrait and Stigma’s pseudo-narratives. With the refreshing smell of bergamot by Malin+Goetz, one is then invited to join the others in the public bath for a collective reception and conversation on Hannah Lim’s re-appropriated snuff bottles, Yushi Li’s binary gaze, and Youngsook Choi’s collective grief. The exhibition is both intimate and social, drifting away from traditional art-viewing to an immersive cultural experience. Join the conversation at this public bathhouse, at 230 Portobello Road, London.
“由六位新兴和成熟的东亚和东南亚女性艺术家组成的多元化阵容，在广泛的媒体中工作，被选中呈现出一种连接的力量，讲述亚洲女权主义者的身份，为伦敦亚洲社区代表不足的成员提供保证，并邀请所有成员加入并庆祝文化多样性”。- 陈丽莎
“A diverse line-up of six emerging and established female East and Southeast Asian artists, working across a wide range of media, are selected to present a connective strength that speaks about the identity of Asian feminists, provide assurance to under-represented members of Asian communities of London, and invite all members to join in and celebrate cultural diversity.” – Lisa Chan.
