Colourful geometric panels and positive messages brighten the bamboo structure of the See Through pavilion, which designer and artist Morag Myerscough has installed in a park in London.

The pavilion, which straddles a path through Grosvenor Square, was created to uplift passersby and offer safe outdoor space for people to enjoy during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Myerscough’s design responds to the impact of lockdown on the public and the resultant increase in people spending time outside and in nature.

多彩的幾何面板和正面信息為透明亭閣的竹子結構增光添彩,設計師和藝術家莫拉格·邁爾斯庫夫(Morag Myerscough)將其安裝在倫敦的一個公園中。

該展館跨越格羅夫納廣場(Grosvenor Square)的小徑,旨在提升行人的視線,並為人們提供安全的戶外空間,以供人們在Covid-19大流行期間享受。

Myerscough的設計可以應對封鎖對公眾的影響,以及隨之而來的人們在戶外和自然環境中度過的時光增加。

“Our worlds have closed in and we have time to reflect and be engaged in our lives in very different ways,” London-based Myerscough explained.

“We have had time to appreciate the here and now, connect back to nature, and take a slower pace,” she continued. “Outside spaces are safer places to be and so we need to occupy them and bring unexpected joy back to the everyday. The structure is a response to these new times.”

倫敦的Myerscough解釋說:“我們的世界已經封閉,我們有時間以非常不同的方式反思和參與我們的生活。”

她繼續說:“我們現在有時間欣賞這裡的時光,回歸自然,並以較慢的速度前進。” “外部空間是更安全的地方,因此我們需要佔用它們,並給日常生活帶來意想不到的歡樂。這種結構是對這些新時代的回應。”

See Through is one of 11 pavilions built by artists as part of Wander Art, an outdoor art trail in London curated by Alter-Projects and hosted by Grosvenor Britain and Ireland.

Each artist was given a selection of sites to choose from, with Grosvenor Square being Myerscough’s first choice due to its size, openness and natural surroundings.

See Through是藝術家作為Wander Art的一部分建造的11個展館之一,Wander Art是倫敦的戶外藝術之路,由Alter-Projects策劃,由Grosvenor英國和愛爾蘭主辦。

每個藝術家都有選擇的地點供選擇,格羅夫納廣場因其規模,開放性和自然環境成為Myerscough的首選。

The pavilion’s size is dictated by site constraints: its height of four metres satisfies planning guidelines, while its width accommodates the path over which it is built.

Its open form was designed by Myerscough to offer a playful, skeletal appearance, while also minimising enclosed space for visitors’ safety.

“The piece was commissioned in the midst of the pandemic so it was important it was not an enclosed space, as much air circulation as possible,” Myerscough told.

“There are many ways to enter and walk through the artwork, which was important so that people can keep their distance, but at the same time allowing several people to enter at one time.”

展館的大小由場地限制決定:它的四米高符合規劃準則,而其寬度可容納其建造路徑。

它的開放形式是由Myerscough設計的,具有俏皮的骨骼外觀,同時還最小化了封閉空間,以保護遊客的安全。

Myerscough說:“這件作品是在大流行期間進行調試的,因此,重要的是,它不是封閉的空間,而是盡可能多的空氣流通。”

“有很多進入和瀏覽藝術品的方法,這很重要,這樣人們就可以保持距離,但同時又允許幾個人同時進入。”

See Through is the first pavilion by Myerscough that is built from bamboo – a sustainable plant known for its naturally fast-growing and renewing properties, but also its strength and flexibility.

The bamboo canes are fastened together with cable ties and impermanent fixtures, ensuring both their stability in use and recyclability at the end of their life.

See Through是Myerscough的第一個涼亭,它是用竹子建造的。竹子是一種可持續發展的植物,以其自然的快速生長和更新特性,以及強度和柔韌性而聞名。

竹棒通過束線帶和固定裝置固定在一起,從而確保了使用壽命的穩定性和可回收性。

The phrases on the graphic panels that decorate the pavilion are drawn from Myerscough’s notebook, within which she has written various words and sentences over the past year.

“I was listening and watching a lot of news and screen heads talking continually at me over the last year and I felt an urge to write down phrases and words that I heard, plus some I was thinking and observing myself,” Myerscough explained.

裝飾展館的圖形面板上的短語取材自Myerscough的筆記本,在過去的一年中,她在其中寫下了各種單詞和句子。

“在過去的一年中,我一直在聽和看很多新聞和屏幕提示,不斷地向我說話,我渴望寫下自己聽到的短語和單詞,以及一些自己在思考和觀察自己的事物,” Myerscough解釋說。

“Collecting words and recording thoughts and moods in different forms throughout this pandemic year has taken on a stronger meaning in my work,” she continued.

“Everything feels heightened and I feel a need to express my thoughts and experiences as they are not individual thoughts and experiences; they are collective, as this is the first time in my lifetime and many others that we are all experiencing the same thing at the same time.”

她繼續說:“在這一大流行年中,收集單詞並以不同形式記錄思想和情緒對我的工作具有更重要的意義。”

“一切都變得更加強烈,我感到有必要表達我的思想和經驗,因為它們不是個人的思想和經驗;它們是集體的,因為這是我一生中的第一次,而我們其他許多人都在經歷同樣的事情。 同時。”

The decorative panels that envelop the pavilion are all made from ply offcuts from Myerscough’s own studio and will be reused by the designer in her future work.

See Through is not the first installation completed by Myerscough during the coronavirus pandemic. In Paris, she created a colourful structure that encourages people to focus on the positive changes that have occurred as a result of Covid-19, and in Leeds, she designed a billboard to thank frontline workers.

包圍展館的裝飾面板全部是由Myerscough自己工作室的層狀殘料製成的,將由設計師在她未來的工作中重複使用。

“看穿”並不是Myerscough在冠狀病毒大流行期間完成的第一個安裝。 在巴黎,她創建了一個豐富多彩的結構,鼓勵人們專注於Covid-19所帶來的積極變化,在利茲,她設計了一個廣告牌來感謝前線工作人員。
