Appreciation towards
Tom Price
for providing the following description:
艺术家Tom Price为伦敦西敏寺大法院的花园创作了一组有意境的艺术装置，装置的主体是一棵跨度12米的树木，这棵使用青铜和塑料锻造的树木，其蔓延的枝桠自由奔放的穿梭在背后那一片绿油油的树篱中，闪耀着金光，创造出一片童话般的图景。另外树下还有三块来自波西米亚北部的大石头，艺术家在这些切割石头的切面上镀上闪亮光滑的青铜，小朋友可以放心的在上面滑动和探索。
Sculptural commission for The Courthouse, Westminster, London.
Tom Price 2014
Curated by Future City and Commissioned by the developers, Barratt London, for the newly built Courthouse apartments on Romney Street in Westminster, Vyner Tree establishes a direct historical linkto its location as the site of a former vineyard, once used to produce wine for the Abbot of Westminster Abbey.
Spanning some 12 metres, the sculpture rises up and through a living green wall, its shimmering leaves overlookingaprivate courtyard on one side and Romney Street on the other.
The foliage, cast in bronze from masters made from partially melted plastic pipe, is patinated black on one side and polished to a mirror finish on the other.
The result is a contemplative work of art with an iridescent surface as changeable as the weather.
At its base are three rocks, sourced from the picturesque Mountains of Northern Bohemia and cast in bronze. A simple polishedslice or tunnel through the rocks serves as an interface for children to slide on, climb through or explore.
