About The Joy Of Swimming Fish D'Freed vun de schwammende Fëscher Ausstellungsraum Design

D'Raumgestaltung kombinéiert räimlech Elementer mat poetescher Logik an romanteschem Denken aus dem "Pond Dialogue", woubäi "d'Freed vun de schwammende Fëscher" als Designkonzept déngt. Et dréckt dialektesch philosophescht Denken duerch räimlech Duerstellung aus a vermëttelt Denkweisen, wärend et de Charme vun der ëstlecher Philosophie am Raum erweidert. Fléissend Kurbelen a dynamesch Strukturen simuléieren Fëscher déi fräi am Waasser glidden a schafen eng liewege Atmosphär. Dësen Design invitéiert d'Besucher de Raum ze exploréieren an iwwer d'Harmonie tëschent Natur a Mënschheet nozedenken.

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.
