【描述】
位于朱诺邮轮码头的这一系列十件雕塑定义了游客和社区如何与水边相遇。这些雕塑安装在从前用于系泊邮轮的现有柱桩上,从Marine Park一直延伸到Mt. Robert’s Tramway大楼。Aquileans雕塑的形式灵感来源于阿拉斯加景观的原型,包括两个标志性的生态形状:鲸鱼尾鳍和飞翔中的鹰翼。恰如其名,Aquileans结合了拉丁文中“鹰”和“鲸”的词义。每件雕塑在白天反射和折射阳光,夜晚则通过可变色LED灯照亮,灯光效果让人联想到北极光现象。以山脉和海洋为背景,这些雕塑为水岸线创造了独特的性格,并为朱诺的社会和经济生活带来了现代美学。

当位于市中心Seawalk的Aquileans系列——由10件雕塑组成的装置艺术——于九月底亮起灯光时,公众开始对这件公共艺术品产生好感,甚至有人开始——可以说——喜欢上了它。
Description
Situated along Juneau’s cruise ship birth the suite of ten sculptures defines how visitors and the community meet the water’s edge. The sculptures are installed on existing bollards that were formally used to tie up cruise ships along the waterfront from Marine Park to the Mt. Robert’s Tramway building. The inspiration for Aquileans sculptural form is archetypes of the Alaskan landscape including two iconic ecological shapes, a whale fluke and an eagle’s wings in flight. Aptly titled, Aquileans is a combination of the Latin words for eagle and whale. Each sculpture reflects and refracts sunlight during the day and at night are illuminated with a program of color changing LED lights reminiscent of the Aurora borealis northern lights phenomena. Set against the landscape of mountains and ocean the sculptures create a recognizable character for the waterfront and bring a contemporary aesthetic to the social and economic life of Juneau.

When Aquileans – a series of 10 sculptures installed along the downtown Seawalk – lit up at the end of September, people warmed up to the public art, and have even started to – daresay – like it.
