《呼吸》

奥古斯丁教堂

Kimsooja在法国普瓦捷市为traverses / Kimsooja展示了十多个特定地点的装置。

二十多年来，从她的装置到她的视频，bottari的概念在Kimsooja的作品中得到了发展。传统上用于运输个人物品，在她的作品中，bottari扩展到空间，场地和建筑。在《呼吸》中，她对绘画和缝纫的兴趣凸显出来，因为奥古斯丁教堂的回廊窗户上覆盖着衍射光线的薄膜，起到了透光帆布的作用。透过窗户，观众移动的目光变成了一根针，将作品编织在一起。半透明的薄膜就像一层皮肤，包裹着回廊的窗户和建筑，定义了自然和室内空间之间的界限。当光线穿过玻璃时，它们倍增成无限的颜色，栖息在空间中，随着太阳的日常旅程而移动和变换。每一次独特的体验都是一次沉思的邀请，并发现通往奥古斯丁修道院未知花园的敏感和精神通道。

To Breathe

Cloître des Augustins

Kimsooja presents more than ten site-specific installations throughout the city of Poitiers, France for Traversées / Kimsooja.

For more than two decades, the concept of bottari has developed in Kimsooja’s work, from her installations to her videos.  Traditionally used to transport personal belongings, the bottari extends to spaces, sites, and architectures in her work.  With To Breathe, her interest in painting and sewing come to the fore as the cloister windows of the Chapelle des Augustins are covered with film that diffracts light, functioning as a permeable canvas.  Through the windows, the viewer’s moving gaze becomes a needle that weaves the piece together.  The translucent film acts like a skin that envelops the windows and architecture of the cloister, defining the division between nature and the interior space.  As rays of light pass through the glass, they multiply into an infinite number of colors that inhabit the space, move, and transform as the sun makes its daily journey.  Each unique experience is an invitation to contemplate, and to discover a sensitive and spiritual passage to the unknown garden of the Chapelle des Augustins cloister
