“风叶”是由波士顿艺术家凯瑟琳▪威杰里设计的一系列公共作品。项目由埃尔帕索的博物馆及文化部门发起。这里是城市的一角，快餐店、加气站和商店占满了这片区域，基本见不到任何自然风光。威杰里想到了一个办法，他制作了一系列具有当地特色的金属屏。这些金属屏幕上展示的是当地植物图片，它们被放置在了埃尔帕索平顶山走廊路边的巴士站台。在德克萨斯的烈日下，这些站台为行人提供了一个很好的遮阴处，同时鼓励他们与自然重新联系起来。

“风叶”的概念来自于时间、运动和对于物理世界的感知。为了管理每天不断面临的视觉压力，人的大脑删除了熟悉的事物。为了克服这以现象，威杰里在站台的铝制屏的内部面印上了这些图片。行人在进入离开的过程中，这些图片也在出现和消失。通过这样的律动，她捕捉了行人对于这样的自然“描写”的反应。这些屏幕上展示了各个季节的花草，走过整条路线便能感受到一个完整的季节循环。

这些图片由当地摄影师帕特里克▪沃克提供。由Carl Daniel建筑公司制作的集成铝制屏使得站台在展示这些图片的同时没有对通风和空气流动造成影响。景观建筑师Deborah Blea Hradek对每种植物都进行了确认以保证它们是当地常见的植物。这些作品的最终形成还归功于很多人，Isadore Michas提供了3D造型，光栅由Ohio Gratings有限公司制作，而Prolab数字化图形公司则进行了图片印制。

‘Leaves of wind’ are a series of public works by boston-based artist catherine widgery. The project was commissioned by el paso’s museums and cultural affairs department. The route serves an urban quarter of the city where fast food restaurants, gas stations, and businesses have rendered nature almost invisible. As a solution, widgery fabricated a succession of custom metal screens featuring dramatic images of local flora, and positioned them at stops along the mesa corridor of el paso’s brio rapid transit. The stations provide riders a welcome respite from the blazing texas sun and simultaneously encourage them to reconnect with nature.

The concept of ‘leaves of wind’ comes from notions of time, motion, and perceptions of the physical world. In order to manage the incessant visual overload most are faced with everyday, the mind edits out familiarities. To overcome this phenomenon, widgery printed the photographs on the inside faces of the stations’ aluminum screens. As riders approach and depart, images appear and disappear. Using motion and surprise, she captures passerby’s attention to the depictions of nature. Plants and flowers from every season are featured, and whoever travels the entire route experiences a full seasonal cycle.

Visuals were provided by patrick walker, a local photographer mentored by widgery through a program led by the museums and cultural affairs department. Integrated aluminum shade-screens by carl daniel architects allowed space for the images without compromising the stations’ ventilation and air flow. Landscape architect deborah blea hradek confirmed every chosen plant to ensure it was commonly found in the locale. Production of the works was coordinated with help from 3d modeling by isadore michas, grating manufacturer ohio gratings inc., and printing by prolab digital imaging.
