该装置是一个直径15米的金色圆圈,覆盖在西班牙伊比沙岛的一栋建筑立面上。它由城市艺术家SpY设计,用救生毯制成。
The urban artist, known as SpY, has completed the installation of a fifteen-meter diameter golden circle, made out of rescue blankets, all over the façade of one building located in the center of Ibiza, the Spanish Island

金色的救生毯覆满圆圈表面,如同一面巨大的镜子,在阳光照射下呈现出多变的光泽。这个装置不仅照亮了岛上的主要街道,还影响了周边的温度,使环境光更加温暖。
All these golden rescue blankets occupy the whole surface of the circle resulting into an enormous mirror that changes as the light of the sun reflects on it. This unique effect not only illuminates the main street of this Spanish island but also affects its temperature and boosts the warmth of the ambient light of such location.

装置亮相于“Bloop”国际艺术节,活动的核心议题是“希望”。通过使用这些求生用的救援毯,SpY增强了公众对于大规模移民的认识。他们试图逃离战乱地区,到其他国家追寻希望。
这个金色的圆形装置模仿了太阳的外形,同时反射阳光。在有些时间段中,它会变得过于明亮以至于无法让人指示。行人经过的时候甚至要遮住脸或者戴上墨镜。
This project was presented in the International “Bloop” Festival which leading axis and main core of all its artistic proposals was “Hope”. Through the use of these simple blankets, used in rescue and survival procedures, SpY raises awareness on the mass migration movements of all those human beings seeking hope as they try to flee from their conflict areas.
The rounded shape of the work and its golden color emulate a sun that, at the same time, is being strongly reflected on it. In certain time frames, it became almost impossible to stare at it due to its luminosity to the extent that some pedestrians had to cover their faces or even needed sunglasses.

圆圈本身的概念是起源和终点,是灯塔,是太阳,既能赋予生命,又能将其剥夺。当它被安装在伊比沙这样一座美与陈腐并存的岛屿上时,更是展现出了一种别样的风貌。
The concept of the circle itself is conceived as origin and destination, a lighthouse, the sun that can both give and take away life, installed on an island such as Ibiza that, at the same time, reflects a constant dichotomy of beauty and banality.
