傳達水的力量和詩意
Conveys the Power and Poetry of Water
荷蘭藝術家和設計師Daan Roosegaarde創建了WATERLICHT，以提高人們對水位上升的認識，以及繼續創新和適應不斷變化的環境的必要性。WATERLICHT使用LED和鏡頭的組合，其在觀眾的頭部上方形成不斷變化的藍色光層。自2016年成立以來，作為阿姆斯特丹荷蘭區水務局的特定場地藝術品，沉浸式裝置已在倫敦，多倫多，巴黎，鹿特丹，迪拜以及紐約市的聯合國總部展示。
Dutch artist and designer Daan Roosegaarde created WATERLICHT to raise awareness about rising water levels and the need to continue to innovate and adapt to our changing environment. The ethereal projection uses a combination of LED and lenses, which forms a constantly shifting layer of billowing blue light above the heads of viewers. Since its inception in 2016 as a site-specific artwork for Amsterdam’s Dutch District Water Board, the immersive installation has been shown across the world in London, Toronto, Paris, Rotterdam, Dubai, and at the United Nations headquarters in New York City.
在藝術家網站的一份聲明中，WATERLICHT被描述為“關於水的力量和詩歌的夢想景觀…… WATERLICHT創造了一種集體經驗來分享水創新的重要性。”
In a statement on the artist’s website, WATERLICHT is described as a “dream landscape about the power and poetry of water… WATERLICHT creates a collective experience to share the importance of water innovation.”
Roosegaarde的工作重點是人與自然環境之間的複雜關係，包括煙霧，空間浪費和彩虹。他最近在2019 年被任命為墨西哥蒙特雷蒙特雷大學的客座教授。您可以在他的網站上發現更多Roosegaarde的項目，並在下麵的視頻中觀看藝術家在WATERLICHT多倫多安裝現場的采訪。
Roosegaarde’s body of work focuses on the complex relationship between people and our natural surroundings, including smog, space waste, and rainbows. He was recently named a visiting professor at Monterrey University in Monterrey, Mexico for 2019.
