Art installation looks like pigeon house on wheels (2014/02/24)

A new installation at the Taitung Art Museum offers visitors a chance to enter what appears to be a moving pigeon house. Inside the house is devoid of pigeons and looks more like a human inhabitance, conveying the designer’s conception of a longing to fly free. 

From the exterior this wooden building looks like a pigeon house. Located on the end of a green belt outside Taitung Art Museum, it is small but well furnished. Inside there is a kitchen and bathtub, and most astonishing are the wheels underneath. These bring a freedom of movement that makes it possible to bring the home on trips.

My idea was to bring people back to the fundamentals of architecture. Or you could say I wanted to show them a more intrinsic structure. In fact, architecture is something you experience with the five senses.

The building was designed by Hsiao Yu-chih, a professor in the Architecture Department of Shih Chieh University. It acts as a stage standing in a green field where structure, activity and people interact. The county’s culture director described the meaning behind the design.

It symbolizes a pigeon-free pigeon house because when pigeons fly away they are free. When we are in a building, we are like a pigeon that longs to fly freely away. We can fly out of the building and away from this world to travel in another place.

There are few large-scale art installations in Taitung, making the introduction of this unusual building a popular topic of discussion.

房子會走路

霍爾的移動城堡可以到處自由行動,而在台東美術館也有一棟裝有輪子可以到處移動的木屋,外觀看起來很像鴿子屋,不過裡頭不僅沒有鴿子,而且廚房、衛浴一應俱全,讓參觀的民眾都很想要有一幢這樣的自由小屋,帶著到處旅行。

這幢木製的自由小屋,外型看起來像是鴿舍,落腳在台東美術館外部綠色軸線的一端,麻雀雖小,五臟俱全,裡頭有廚房、浴缸,最特別的是房子底下還有輪子,讓民眾不禁也想要有一幢自由小屋,帶著去到處旅行。

“創作理念,我想要讓大家能夠,重新回到建築一個比較根本的,或是比較本質的狀態,其實建築就是大家都會用五感,去感受的東西”

自由小屋是由實踐大學建築設計系蕭有志教授設計,以小屋為舞台,草地為腹地,讓民眾感受小屋、活動與人三者的聯結,台東文化處處長,也為這個設計背後的意義作出說明。

[[台東文化處長 劉政]]
“它所崇尚的就是一個沒有鴿子的鴿子籠, 因為鴿子飛出去的時候是自由飛翔 ,我們就會渴望說我們在屋子裡時,我們也是像鴿子一樣渴望自由飛翔,飛出這個房子、這個世界,然後到別的地方去旅行”

台東少有大型裝置藝術擺設,加上造型特殊,造成話題性。
