《爬山虎的家》
"Home for Boston Ivy"

《爬山虎的家》是与城市升级改造议题有关的艺术创作。这组作品属于系列作品中的一组创作，创作地点位于湖南常德沅水右岸的棚户区。目前，棚户区正在进行拆迁，不久的将来，一座现代化新城将会把这里彻底覆盖，这里现有的一切都将不复存在。在这拆旧建新之际，怎样保存旧城的记忆并为未来新城注入原点记忆，是系列作品创作的基本出发点。

"Home for Boston Ivy" is an artwork related to urban upgrading. It is a group of artwork from the serial works; the creating site is located in shanty towns on the right bank of Yuan River in Changde, Hunan province. At present, the shanty towns are being demolished and will be completely replaced by a brand new modern city in the near future; what it now has here will no longer exist. On the occasion of the demolition, how to preserve the memory of the old city and make it origin memory of the future new city is the basic point of creation for this series of artworks.

创作草图

在棚户区随处可见爬满爬山虎的房子，这种景象体现了人与自然的和谐共处，也构成人通常对于家园的记忆。爬山虎依附在建筑上生长的同时，也忠实地塑造出了建筑空间形体转折与围合。《爬山虎的家》这件作品通过“抽离”爬山虎所依附的建筑物，仅留下盘根错节带有建筑形体空间记忆的爬山虎。作品的尺度以棚户区旧房子的实际尺寸为依据，材料采用拆迁现场废弃的钢筋焊接，整体营造出爬山虎对房子的包裹状态，形成通透虚空的形体。

Houses being covered by Boston Ivy could be seen everywhere in shanty towns; while presenting a picture of harmonious coexistence of man and nature, it is also the memory of home for habitants of shanty towns. When Boston Ivy attaches to the buildings and grows, it forms the turns and enclosures of the space. Work "Home for Boston Ivy" pulled away the building which the Boston Ivy attached to, and left only the Boston Ivy with twisted roots and gnarled branches in the shape of the building. The size of the artwork is based on the actual size of the old house in shanty towns, and the material is welded disused steel from the demolition site. The whole work shows the state that Boston Ivy wraps the house, forming a transparent and vacant shape.

种植动画效果

这件作品将置于未来的新城空间。这一装置可以在未来的城市空间中回应棚户区曾有的空间记忆。与其它类型的装置作品不同的是，《爬山虎的家》同时还是一件城市绿化装置。未来同样可以再次种上爬山虎，当爬山虎爬在“爬山虎”上时，过去棚户区的房屋印记将越发明显。

This artwork will be placed in the future new town. It will remind the residents of the shanty towns of their old memories. Different from other types of installations, “Home for Boston Ivy” is also an urban greening device. Boston Ivy will grow on it again in the future, when Boston Ivy climbs up to “Home for Boston Ivy”, the mark of houses of old shanty towns will be more clear.
