About The Joy Of Swimming Fish Igeri Dabiltzan Arrainen Pozaren Erakusketa Espazio Diseinua

Espazioaren diseinuak espazio elementuak konbinatzen ditu "Urtegiko Elkarrizketaren" logika poetikoko eztabaida eta pentsamendu erromantikoarekin, "igeri dabiltzan arrainen poza" diseinu kontzeptu gisa erabiliz. Pentsamendu filosofiko dialektikoa adierazten du espazio irudikapenaren bidez eta pentsamendu moduak transmititzen ditu espazioan Ekialdeko filosofiaren sona hedatzen duen bitartean. Kurba lerdenduak eta egitura dinamikoek uretan askatasunez irristatzen diren arrainak simulatzen dituzte, atmosfera biziduna sortuz. Diseinu honek bisitariak gonbidatzen ditu espazioa esploratzera eta naturaren eta gizatasunaren arteko harmoniari buruz hausnartzera.

Tags: Fluidity, Pond Dialogue, Space, Philosophical Thought,Nature
Production Technology: By employing flowing curves and dynamic spatial structures, the design aims to simulate the state of fish swimming freely in water, creating a lively and poetic atmosphere.
Design Challenge: The challenge lies in how to express the essence of the story, depict the debate process between Zhuangzi and Huizi, while also ensuring the practicality of the space.
Research: When I am in this space, how can I perceive the joy of the fish, both as the fish swimming below and as the observer above, thus achieving a moment of unity between myself and the surroundings?
Inspiration: Huizi said,'You are not a fish; how do you know what constitutes the enjoyment of fishes?' Zhuangzi rejoined, 'You are not I. How do you know that I do not know what constitutes the enjoyment of fishes?'
Project Duration: The project started in October 2021 in Shanghai and finished in June 2023.
Operation Flow: In the concept of "the joy of swimming fish," the verb "swim" not only refers to the activity of the fish but also connects the interaction and communication between the two observers. This allows visitors to not only appreciate the art but also to profoundly reflect on the relationship between humanity and nature, as well as the individual and society, symbolizing the harmony between nature and life. By integrating the Eastern philosophical concepts of harmony between humanity and nature, and dialectical unity, it creates an environment that embodies both aesthetic and educational significance.
