Ryo yamada 在日本一个小山坡上搭起了“空中花园”，这是一件代表着空中通道的艺术作品，山坡四周被美丽的自然风光包围。通过这件作品，yamada并不想表达通道的传统含义，即连接着两个点的一条道路，因为在这里它并没有连接到一个可见的目的地，他希望表达出一种基于体验的隐喻性含义。

这个装置是2014年札幌国际艺术节“萌芽公园”展览的一部分，深究其背后的深层含义，公园这个词的原意是指：一块封闭的、被保护的土地。在历史上，它们是用来保护领主的财产和防止入侵者入侵的。在知道了这些信息后，艺术家就开始想象一座能够把人们与广阔无限的天空连接起来的空中通道，主通道有0.6米宽，足够一个人通过。天桥的主构架框架元素是再生木，木头支撑着通道直入4.2米高的天空，顺着山坡的趋势木架的长度也逐渐变长。“只有空气对世界上任何一个地方的人来说是平等的，我认为空气是平等的标志，没有国界。”yamada这样说。

atop a sloping hill surrounded by the natural landscape of japan, ryo yamada has constructed ‘air garden’, a piece of art meant to symbolize a passage. within this context, yamada doesn’t intend to convey the typical meaning of the word defined as ‘a path connecting one point to another’ because it does not lead to a tangible destination, but hopes to create a metaphorical one based on an experience.

The installation is part of the 2014 sapporo international art festival exhibition titled ‘sprouting garden’. delving into depths of the brief, the origin of the word ‘garden’ refers to an enclosed or protected land. in historical times, they were built to protect the lord’s property and keep intruders from entering. after gathering all of this information, the artist has envisioned the piece to connect the people with a procession into the infinite openness of the sky. the main pathway at 0.6 meters is wide enough to allow only one person to walk. recycled wood is used for the truss construction elements to raise the platform 4.2 meters up into the air as the landscape moves downwards. ‘only air is equally available to people anywhere in the world, and I believe it is a symbol of equality without boundaries,’ said yamada.
