About Chengdu Dachuan Lane Art Installation Espaci d'Art Public

Lo carrièr de Dachuan de Chengdu, sus la ribèra oèst del riu Jinjiang, es un carrièr istoric que liga las ruïnas de la murralha de la Pòrta Èst de Chengdu. Dins lo projècte, l'arcan istoric de Dachuan Lane es estat reconstruch segon las tecnicas ancianas al siu original del carrièr, e l'istòria d'aquesta via es contada a travèrs d'installacions d'art urbanas. L'intervencion de las installacions artisticas representa un mejan per la continuacion e la transmission de las istòrias. Aquò non solament reproduïs las traças dels carrièrs e passatgesistics que son estats demolits, mas tanben apòrta una forma de calor de memòria urbana als nòus espacis urbans.

Production Technology: 8, 250, 4000 (unit mm), this group of Numbers reproduce an old street-like structural space, in the visible and invisible space, to build a space out of sight, blurred boundaries of perception. The whole device is 8mm diameter stainless steel copper plated solid tube factory modulus dislocation welding, and then to the site assembly and deep processing. The ground is paved with black bricks and stone slabs of traditional local streets.
Design Challenge: The installation space itself is the image space of the street entrance, which not only ensures the basic traffic function, but also serves as the carrier to communicate the memory of the street and the life of the street. How to let the public experience an interesting and dramatic space interwoven with memory, life and culture is the goal and problem of this design.
Research: The installation itself is a medium for the continuation and transmission of the story. It is an installation building that inherits and creates traditions without relying on the visual integration with the surrounding environment. It not only reproduces the traces of the historical streets that have been demolished, but also provides a kind of urban cultural temperature for the new street space.
Inspiration: Inheriting the history, carrying forward the memory, reviving the streets, this is the new meaning of the new street entrance device. Through the construction of a new link relationship, the historical prototype and contemporary culture have a new collision, to show the close relationship between human history, modern commerce and residents' life. From the component space arranged in order in depth, a considerable, swimmable and stop-able street installation space is created.
Project Duration: The project, located in jinjiang district, chengdu city, sichuan province, was completed in June 2019.
Operation Flow: At the same time of demolishing the original street gateways, the historical gate buildings of dachuan lane were rebuilt by repairing the old ones, and the stainless steel devices were used as the space structure, and the interactive devices of streets and lanes were used to tell the story of the street. The interactivity of the space enables the passers-by to stop and feel the people who used to live here and the stories that happened here, so as to improve the memory of the streets.
