Three Passages to the Time Tunnel- A kind of territory leaps to aesthetics｜Kaohsiung Metro

Three paths(sugar cane railway, railway and MRT (mass rapid transit) railway);three kind of tenses (past, present and future); three totems (early Japanese governing time, a generation of middle-ages in literature and history, today's MRT transport); three positions; three areas of landscape (sugar refinery, forest and MRT transport); three groups of populace (resident, people from other place and person of different opinions by speaking out) - a central of bond collection (circle space). The public art of this station creates landscape type environmental image which reflects the passing history of sugar refinery, with the spool pulls out the area space that corresponds with the subject. The work selects the model of three positions geometry to create space territory which links the generatrix direction that separately aims at the area of tripartite historical space inarchitecture complex. The artist use the local culture image to represent the cultural gene: the marble part---dwelling office; the log part---the raindrenched board for old stall official residence; cast-aluminium part---resident community with MRT station building. The work use burned red-brick fragment from Kaohsiung hundred years kiln yard -"three tiles kiln" as the main body's material to re-condense for casting. The three parts of the main body pick the concaveconvex masculine and feminine elements that form the metaphor time path--- possible to sit on the floor, molds the territory with cultural contains, create the square---to be closed, waiting to dialogue, plays the communication and combine the memory of landscape image.
