海的轮廓，即将显现 | Silhouette of the sea

在深蓝之下成千上万的生物中，有一种玻璃乌贼，它的外套膜看起来就像人们跳波尔卡时穿着的舞裙，上面漂亮的圆斑点让这种玻璃乌贼看起来有点像卡通片里的形象，也为这静谧的深海环境平添了一点亮色。

《Volumes》就是是由来自俄罗斯的动态图像艺术家Maxim Zhestkov，以乌贼为灵感，为本次展览发起的一件有关自然、物理、艺术和爱情的全CG实验性艺术电影装置。影片通过压力和自然力支配20亿个粒子运动，来表达社会中人与人的相互关系，探索情感与自然规律的并置。数十亿粒子的运动让人联想到自然界海浪的运动轨迹。

作品中的每一帧都呈现出一个新的数字雕塑形状，融合环境声音和粒子的运动表现出强大的张力，如同狂欢的乌贼，持续变化其形态和颜色。

Beneath the deep blue, among countless marine creatures, there exists a species known as the glass squid. Its mantle resembles the flared skirt worn by dancers performing the polka, adorned with delicate circular spots that give it an almost cartoon-like appearance—bringing a subtle brightness to the otherwise tranquil depths of the ocean.

Volumes is a fully CG experimental film installation initiated for this exhibition by Russian motion artist Maxim Zhestkov, inspired by the squid. The work explores themes of nature, physics, art, and love. Through the movement of two billion particles governed by pressure and natural forces, the film reflects the dynamics of human relationships within society, juxtaposing emotional connections with the laws of nature. The motion of these billions of particles evokes the rhythmic patterns of ocean waves.

Each frame of the work presents a new form of digital sculpture, merging environmental sound with particle motion to create a powerful sense of tension—like a jubilant squid continuously transforming its shape and colour.

曾经在巴黎市政厅前广场展出过大型装置作品《冰碑》的旅法艺术家刘真辰，为本次展览全新创作了海洋主题艺术装置-《深蓝·万花筒系列》。

这个由300块灯箱组合而成的万花筒好似人类消费物，被大海解构重组，仿佛在海底形成一幅绚丽的图画，又反映着人类对于海洋的侵入。

Chinese artist Zhenchen Liu, based in France and known for his large-scale installation Ice Monument, previously exhibited at the square in front of the Hôtel de Ville in Paris, has created a new ocean-themed installation for this exhibition — Deep Blue: Kaleidoscope Series.

Composed of 300 lightboxes, this kaleidoscopic structure resembles fragments of human consumer goods, deconstructed and reassembled by the sea. It forms a dazzling image on the ocean floor, while simultaneously reflecting humanity’s intrusion into the marine environment.

FLOW由蒙特利尔数字艺术家MAOTIK(Mathieu Le Sourd)设计。受大海波浪的启发，他使用自然界的实时数据，例如天气，温度，湿度，潮汐水平或月相的数据，生成巨大的数字波浪，在视觉上呈现出“海平面上升、下降”的形态，同时也带给观众以诗意、俏皮、唯美的感官体验。

观众可以通过交互的方式对数字波浪的地面产生影响，背景音乐也是随着“海”平面的变化而变化。

FLOW is created by Montreal-based digital artist MAOTIK (Mathieu Le Sourd). Inspired by the movement of ocean waves, the work uses real-time data from the natural world—such as weather, temperature, humidity, tidal levels, and lunar phases—to generate vast digital waves. Visually, it presents the rising and falling of a “sea level,” while offering the audience a poetic, playful, and aesthetically immersive sensory experience.

Through interaction, viewers can influence the digital waves projected onto the ground, while the accompanying soundscape also shifts in response to the changing “sea” level.

5位创作者在进行毕业作品创作时，把关注点投向海洋及海洋生物保护。制作组成员们用有限的经费前往马来西亚仙本那（Semporne）的马布岛（Mabul Island），跟踪记录拍摄了当地海龟保育站的海龟保育过程，同时也记录下这个岛上巴瑶族人的生活。创作者用简单和直接的方式，探讨人类与海洋以及人类自身的冲突，揭示出对于海洋的接触、认知、探索和保护，并非宏大的命题，而是起步于每一个行动。

Five creators, while working on their graduation projects, turned their focus toward the ocean and marine life conservation. With limited funding, the production team traveled to Mabul Island in Semporna, Malaysia, where they followed and documented the sea turtle conservation process at a local turtle sanctuary, while also capturing the daily lives of the Bajau people on the island.

Through a simple and direct approach, the creators explore the tensions between humans and the ocean, as well as within humanity itself. The work reveals that engagement with, understanding of, exploration of, and protection of the ocean are not grand, distant propositions, but begin with individual actions.
