朱銘美術館科學家園區

朱銘先生雕塑設置的最重要的元素是「環境」。於2008年，我們為朱先生一批新創作「科學家系列」，於朱銘美術館的一處有水池的空間做雕塑品的展示空間設計。

我們將既有的水池生態化，使水池多了水生植栽的池岸，環著水池則是主要的參觀動線，雕塑則設置於主要動線上，使觀賞者能容易地與雕塑產生互動。每一件白色的雕塑均有一片「綠地毯」為底襯托著，其除了能使白色的雕塑於環境中更顯著之外，也有利於未來雕塑更換而不傷害石舖面。人們於參觀雕塑的過程中，水池則反映了雕塑與周邊的山坡與樹林。

科學家園區不僅僅是一個水池與步道的組合，更應該是雕塑作品與環境空間的整合，藉由作品與空間的相對應，創造一個人們與作品能相互對話的環境，也利用活的空間賦予雕塑作品新生命。


Environment has always been the critical element for Ju Ming to corporate to enhance his sculptures. We started to work on the spatial design beside an existing pond in 2008, in order to home the Scientist Series sculptures.

The design is to greened and soften the edges of the existing pond. The main circulation and the placements of the sculpture interweaved and appear along the water edge, launching conversations between the sculptures and the viewers. The white sculptures are intentionally placed on green carpets, where the white is more vibrant and future maintenance or replacement can easily be done. The central pond reflects the surrounding and amplified the sensational experience of walking in the woods.

Therefore, the landscape surrounding the science area is no longer simply a pedestrian walk and a conventional pond, but an integrated part of the art work, encouraging interactions between people, sculptures, and the natural world.
