《潮間帶‧向世界發信中》以潮間帶比喻展覽中心的特質，位於西海岸中心的世貿中心如潮間帶，每次的展演活動，正恰如潮來潮往，不僅引進了世界各地的產品與技術，也將台灣的產品文化，向世界輸出。地面鑄銅作品結合高雄市立復興國小學童與藝術家一同創作之海底世界想像，並以帶狀馬賽克鋪面形塑海洋波紋的意象，由門口地面的鑄銅羅盤往海的方向發散延伸，一根根圓柱體也佇立於海洋波紋之中，柱體上是一面面揚起透光的風帆，迎著風展開前往世界中心的旅程。
Letter to The World takes on the theme of an intertidal zone to symbolize the characteristics of an exhibition center. Situated at the heart of the west coast, the World Trade Exhibition Center functions akin to an intertidal zone, with each exhibition/performance comparable to the ebb and flow of the tides that have not only brought products and technologies from around the world into Taiwan but also taken Taiwan’s merchandise and culture to the rest of the world. The imagery of oceanic waves is achieved with mosaic bands and cast copper slabs that radiate outward from the cast copper compass situated at the entrance of the exhibition hall. With translucent sails atop, the poles stand amidst of the ocean waves and represent vessels traveling with the wind, embarking on a journey towards the center of the world. |
