《炫彩望京》是為北京望京城區創作的一座城市地標。作品位於望京城區的望京西路和阜通西大街交彙處，該區域是進入望京城區的主要路口，是城區門戶。
The sculpture Colorful Wangjing is a new landmark created for Wangjing Sub-district in Beijing. It is located at the junction of Wangjing West Road and Futong West Avenue, which is a main intersection towards the downtown of Wangjing and is also an urban gateway.
望京原本是北京東北部一片廣袤的農田，經過近二十年的快速發展，目前依托其地段、交通、科技、時尚、宜居、國際商務氛圍等多項優勢，成為北京一個集國際事務、國際商務、移動互聯網科技區、時尚生活區和社交功能兼具的綜合型和國際性區域。創作的任務是通過設置一座城市地標來標識城區門戶空間區域，彰顯這座國際化新城的城市精神。
Wangjing was once vast farmland in the northeast of Beijing. But the nearly 20-year rapid development has turned it into a comprehensive and international area that integrates international affairs and business, mobile internet technology zones, fashion, living and social activities, by taking advantage of its favorable location, transportation, technology, fashion, livability and international business environment. In such a context, the project is intended to create a landmark to identify an urban gateway and to exemplify the spirit of this international new area.
《炫彩望京》這座城市地標作品的創作概念和形式直接來源於對“望京”這一古地名的現代詮釋與表達。在古代，這一區域之所以被稱為“望京”，意指隻要到達這裏就可以直接望見京城。由此可見，“望京”這一地名本身就具有空間標識性和方位指向性的意蘊。巧合的是，在城市衛星地圖上看，作品正對著的望京西路向北京主城區的延長線的確可直抵天安門廣場，因此，新增的城市地標仍蘊含有“守望京城”的古意。“望”與“看”都是通過眼睛來實現的，因此，對“眼睛”的抽象表達構成了這座城市地標的基本形態。也正因為如此，作品落成後，望京市民將這件作品稱之為“望京之眼”，如此稱呼也算貼切！
The concept and form of the landmark sculpture are derived from the modern interpretation and expression of “Wangjing”, a place name that can date back to ancient times. “Wangjing” literally means “look out to the imperial city”, implying that the imperial city is visible in this area, and thus it represents a strong identity of space and direction. What’s more, from the satellite map, the extension of Wangjing Road next to the sculpture can reach Tian’anmen Square and hence the new landmark inherits the ancient meaning of “looking out to the imperial city”. To echo this, the design adopts an abstract image of an “eye” as the basic form of the landmark sculpture. And this is also the reason why citizens name it “The Eye of Wangjing” after its completion.

創作力圖通過極簡的形態去傳遞豐富的城市內涵，同時，作為一件公共藝術作品，希望既實現城市地標的標識功能又與城市未來發展和市民日常生活共生。作品主體直徑為18米，通過外圍不鏽鋼鋼環用鋼索將中央的雙曲麵LED屏張拉起來，共同構成簡約的“眼睛”形態。外環麵層材料之所以采用鏡麵不鏽鋼是希望實現主體結構的消隱，鋼索的張拉使得中央的“瞳孔”產生懸浮感和神秘感。
The design tries to communicate rich city context in a minimalist form, and to create a piece of public art that turns into a city landmark while harmonizing with future development and daily life. The outer circle of the sculpture, with a diameter of 18 meters and made of stainless steel, holds the inner circle— a hyperboloid LED screen through steel cables, together forming a simple form of an “eye”. The outer circle is built with mirrored stainless steel to integrate the main structure into the environment, and the steel cables add a sense of suspension and mystery to the central “pupil”.
在這三個基本的結構和造型元素之中，雙曲麵LED屏（瞳孔）是作品的核心和靈魂，作品的豐富性和意義就體現在此，因為LED屏可以展示豐富的內容，以體現“眼中萬象”的絢麗效果。另外，作品的互動性也體現在此，因為LED屏播放的內容將由其他藝術家和市民共同來完成。
Among the three basic elements, the hyperboloid LED screen (i.e. the “pupil”) is the key. It reflects the richness and significance of the work, as the screen can display various contents to create a brilliant visual effect that everything is in this “eye”. It also highlights interaction as the contents are created by artists and the citizens together.
創作最初的設想是：在未來日常的使用中，將委托不同的藝術家根據每天不同的時段、每年不同的季節、不同的節日、不同的重大活動創作出與市民日常生活相關的多媒體藝術作品，以體現望京這座新城區多元、包容、炫彩的城市精神和特點。因此，《炫彩望京》這件作品對於望京這座城市的意義在於，它不僅僅是一件城市地標作品，還是一個與大眾互動關聯的開放的多媒體藝術展示窗口，實時的體現這座現代化新城的人文精神氣質。
The idea is to invite various artists to create multi-media artworks relevant to the daily life of the citizens based on different times of the day, different seasons, festivals and major activities, to showcase the diversity, inclusiveness and colorfulness of Wangjing in its spirit and characteristics. Therefore, the sculpture is not only an urban landmark, but also an open multi-media art display window that interacts with the public and displays the spirit and ethos of Wangjing in real time.
這一作品的實施，激活了望京西路和阜通西大街交彙處這一原本不起眼的小廣場，在這裏，作品每天都能為市民日常的休閑和交流活動提供不斷流變的語境，作品即為望京這座城市而創作，更為重要的是為望京市民而創作。創作之處初，在考慮為城市增加新的空間視覺亮點的同時，也兼顧了最大限度的減少作品可能會對周邊商住環境及交通帶來的影響。為減少LED屏的亮度對周邊商住環境的影響，設計中為LED屏特別增加了光感應器，這樣LED屏就能智能的根據每天不同時段的天光亮度自行調節亮度，不僅如此，LED屏的前後兩麵還可以分開調節，以便最大限度的減少夜晚屏幕亮度對後方臨近小區的影響。
The sculpture stimulates an inconspicuous small square at the junction of Wangjing West Road and Futong West Avenue, and creates a constantly changing context for daily entertainment and communication. It is designed for Wangjing, and more importantly, for its people. At the very beginning, the design considered creating a new visual highlight for Wangjing while minimizing its impacts on the surrounding commercial and residential environment and transportation. To that end, light sensors are added to the LED screen, which can auto-adjust brightness according to the light conditions at different times throughout the day. Besides, the front and rear sides of the LED screen can work separately to minimize the interference with the nearby residential communities at night.
