森林中的小步道

该装置在 "LIFT11 "展览中展出，该展览是欧洲文化之都项目的一部分。 这是一个展览，在展览中，特定地点的作品在城市的这里和那里被创作出来。

This is an installation that I exhibited in the exhibition "LIFT11", which was held as part of the Cultural Capital of Europe program. It was an exhibition in which site-specific works were created here and there in the city.

在爱沙尼亚首都塔林的中心，有一片森林，叫卡特里格。 这是一片由300年的古树组成的广袤森林，围绕着一座古老的宫殿蔓延。 在这片美丽的卡特里格森林里，设计师创造了一条小路，蜿蜒在森林里，翩翩起舞。 沿着这条小路走下去，你可以看到森林的一点不同。 你不是从地面仰望森林，而是走近树叶，走过树枝。

In the center of Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, there is a forest called Katriorg. It is a vast forest made up of 300 year old trees that surround an old palace. In this beautiful forest of Katriorg, I created a small path that weaves through the forest in a fluttering motion. Walking along this path, you can see the forest a little differently. Instead of looking up at the forest from the ground, you approach the leaves and walk through the branches.

这条95米长的小道主体结构由直径139毫米的钢管和5毫米厚的钢板组成，有的地方还靠着树木。 这里的树木是建筑的具体组成部分，如果没有这片森林，就不可能有这条松软的小路。 同时，我也想确保这里即使加入了人类的双手，也依然是一片森林。 很难说，但我在想，能不能形成这样一种局面，即包括森林在内的整体可以称为建筑，而包括建筑在内的整体可以称为稍微不同的森林。

The main structure of this 95-meter-long path is made of 139-mm diameter steel pipes and 5-mm thick steel plates, and it is made up of trees that lean against each other in places. The trees in this place are a concrete part of the architecture, and without this forest, this flimsy pathway would not be possible. At the same time, I wanted this place to still be a forest even with the addition of human hands. It's hard to say, but I wondered if it would be possible to create a situation where the whole, including the forest, could be called architecture, and the whole, including the architecture, could be called a slightly different kind of forest.

这个项目并不是想在某一个环境中创造建筑，并思考两者之间的良好关系，而是想看看是否可以创造出让环境本身进入新状态的建筑。首先，森林是一种包含各种事物的状态。 不仅有很多树，还有各种动物在那里生活，鸟儿在那里筑巢，蘑菇和花儿在那里生长。 这些东西都统称为森林。 我的目的是想通过创造一个建筑来扩大环境的多样性，通过这样的方式来创造一个难以分享和团结的建筑。

This project was an attempt to create an architecture that would bring the environment itself into a new state, rather than building an architecture in a certain environment and thinking of a good relationship between the two. In the first place, a forest is a state that contains many different things. Not only are there lots of trees, but various animals live there, birds nest there, and mushrooms and flowers grow there. All of these things are collectively called a forest. My aim was to create an architecture that would expand the diversity of the environment by creating an architecture that is inextricably united in such a way.
