艺术家Achilleas Souras在米兰设计周使用了数百件丢弃的救生衣，为Moroso的SOS 即Save Our Souls装置组装了一个冰屋。
   
16岁的艺术家已经使用从Lesbos海岸收集的夹克在巴塞罗那海洋博物馆展示了类似的小屋，希腊岛屿已成为进入欧洲的难民的常规登陆地。

Artist Achilleas Souras used hundreds of discarded life jackets to assemble an igloo for Moroso's SOS Save Our Souls installation at Milan design week.
The 16-year-old, who has already shown a similar igloo at the Maritime Museum of Barcelona, used jackets collected from the shores of Lesbos – the Greek island that has become a regular landing place for refugees entering Europe.
   

虽然他的第一座冰屋使用了52件夹克，但他的SOS Save Our Souls构筑物是由1,000件废弃的服装制成的。在将它们组装在一起之前，Souras将夹克折叠成类似冰块形状。
   
所形成的防水结构既可作为避难所，也是接受移民的驻点。

While his first igloo used 52 jackets, his SOS Save Our Souls structure is made from 1,000 abandoned garments. Souras cut and folded the jackets to resemble blocks of ice before assembling them together.
The resulting waterproof structure is intended as both a shelter and a welcome point for arriving migrants.
   

出生于伦敦，现居住在巴塞罗那的这位艺术家说：“难民危机只是新闻上的一组数字。”
   
“但是当我挑选了一件外套，它就不再只是材料。当你把夹克拿在手上，会嗅到大海的味道，这样你就可以通过不同的棱镜来看待事物，你会意识到每一件夹克都代表一个人的生命。”

"The refugee crisis was simply a set of numbers on the news," said the artist, who was born in London and now resides in Barcelona.
"But when I picked a jacket up, it stopped being just material. When you hold the jacket in your hand and you smell the sea, you look at things through a different prism and you realise that every jacket represents a human life."
   

一对荷兰设计师还发现了废弃救生衣和小船的新用途——与难民合作，将其变成仅使用铆钉制成的背包。
   
SOS Save Our Souls的展览，设在在意大利品牌Moroso的Via Pontaccio展厅，得到联合国难民署和希腊驻罗马大使馆的支持。

A pair of Dutch designers has also found a new use for abandoned lifejackets, and boats – working with refugees to turn them into backpacks made using only rivet guns.
The SOS Save Our Souls exhibition, installed at Italian brand Moroso's Via Pontaccio showroom, is supported by the UN Refugee Agency and the Greek Embassy in Rome.
   

Souras希望他的小屋最终可以用于救援行动，说道：“难民，无家可归者和无权的人不再“眼不见，心不烦”。
   
“这些都是影响我们大家的全球性问题，必须尽快解决这个问题。”

"The refugees, the homeless, and the less privileged cannot be 'out of sight, out of mind' anymore," added Souras, who hopes his igloos could eventually be used in rescue operations.
"These are global issues that affect us all, and we must try to solve them for everyone's sake."
   

今年的米兰政治意识暗流是一个反复出现的主题。
   
Biagetti工作室开始探索社会对金钱和权力的痴迷，鼓励游客在证券交易所上赌博，而Raumplan则主张将其描述为资本主义的告别聚会。
   
去年，中国艺术家Ai Weiwei为维也纳的浮动装置安排了1,005件难民救生衣组成的莲花形状。

An undercurrent of political awareness is a recurring theme in Milan this year.
Atelier Biagetti set out to explore society's obsession with money and power with an installation that encourages visitors to gamble on the stock exchange, while Raumplan is hosting what it's described as a farewell party for capitalism.
Last year, Chinese artist Ai Weiwei arranged 1,005 refugee life jackets into the shape of lotus flowers for a floating installation in Vienna.
