RAMOPRIMO|UPSIDE DOWN 倒影

“倒映”艺术装置坐落于深圳，由废弃的渔网包裹成一个悬浮于海天之间的景观，人们可以在其中穿行。

“Upside Down” is an installation in Shenzhen made of discarded fishing nets forming a landscape suspended between sea and sky people can walk through.

作为世界自然基金会世界海洋日项目与当地渔业机构合作的内容，“倒映”旨在提高人们对当地渔业垃圾回收的意识。如今，抛弃渔网的成本远低于回收，然而这种普遍的做法对全球海底生态系统造成了巨大的影响：世界自然基金会尝试努力让当地渔业机构参与进来，一起寻找解决的方案。

“Upside Down” has been designed for WWF to raise awareness on the work of recycling fishing nets done with local fishing communities. Throwing away used nets costs nowadays much less than repairing them, but this commonly used practice has enormous repercussions on the ecosystem of the seabed globally: WWF’s effort is to involve local fishing communities to find and define alternative solutions.

该装置在深圳湾的海上世界文化艺术中心将进行为期三周的展览。在此之后还会将在中国各城市进行巡回展。

The installation is part of a larger event open to the public for three weeks in the new Sea World Culture and Art Center facing Shenzhen bay, which will further travel around other Chinese cities.

世界·海洋生活与生计展分为 “网里网外”艺术装置、“渔悦梦想”港、TME视听小站、“有鲜责任”渔市、“网后渔生”渔民故事展、“年年有渔”海宝图鉴和海洋护“蔚”队好奇征集令七个部分。在这里，你可以打卡由回收废弃渔网搭成的交互式装置、了解可持续海鲜消费的相关知识、聆听歌手为海洋献上的动听旋律……

Visitors can experience different installations organized on few stations: Fishing Behind the Net “Fishermen’s Story Exhibition, “Fresh Responsibility” Fish Market, “inside and outside the net” audio and visual stations, Marine Biodiversity Map of China, photographic material to document WWF activities in the ocean and workshops as a contribution to becoming aware of consuming the fish species whose fishing has less impact on the fragile balance of marine life. All installations have a different interactive character to appeal to different senses: visitors could get to know the ocean in depths by walking into the installation and feel the texture of the fishing net, reading the fisherman stories, listening to the music or learning to select the sustainable seafood.

概念源自“网”作为一个情感联结的隐喻，以建立起海洋与人类生存的城市之间的联系。渔网本身就拥有很多含义:渔民在海上作业的工具，一个柔软的可以适应水的元素，以及其自身色彩与海洋色彩融为一体。这个概念试图创建一个能够唤起游客互动的装置，可以自由的在其四周移动。装置由多个单独的单元构成，可以组装为一个密集的垂直组合，或沿着道路建立一个拉伸的路径。从兜形渔网得到启发，我们发展出了从地面升起的模块化元素。其结果是一系列抽象的有机体，结构从下方升起。他们的创富创造了一种浸入式的效果，一个包裹感的环境对游客发出邀请，让游客进入到一个充满海洋元素的不同的城市环境中。这件艺术品是海洋与人关系的圣歌。材质运用使用过的旧渔网，这样的渔网留下了时间的痕迹。像渔民每天做的那样，经过剪切，拼贴和缝合将渔网重新组合在一起，以修复在人与海洋关系中不断消耗的爱与挣扎。

Taking inspiration from the shape of the fishing pot nets, the layout has developed like a group of modular elements rising up from the ground. The result is a series of subtly organic objects, structures that arise from below and grow upwards. Their repetition creates an immersive effect, an enveloping background inviting visitors to immerse themselves into a different environment full of marine references, as if we were bringing the Ocean into the city. The installation is a hymn to the sea and the man. Material used for the wrapping are used fishing nets, recovered from sea waste, which show the marks of life and time. They have been cut, adapted, sewed again and installed together, in the same way fishermen used to do every day, to mend and fix what the ocean is constantly consuming in a relationship of love and struggle.
