Located in Cijin Wind Turbine Park, The Ecological Recreation won the 2nd Public Art Awards (category: Best Public Participation) and features mangroves and sea creatures made using mosaic collages, creating an ecological paradise. Through the Ecological Recreation, students from the neighboring schools can also learn about vibrant intertidal zone ecology; the park serves as an off-campus education zone to reminds people that this site was once a beautiful mangrove forest. This art piece urges us to pay mind to ecological preservation and be mindful of lives and environmental sustainability.
獲第二屆公共藝術獎「最佳民眾參與奬」的《生態樂園》,位在旗津風車公園。
旗津擁有全台罕見自然陸地化的紅樹林,隨著自日據時代以來的港口開發,現今只存幾株橄李和海茄苳保留於風車公園正對面的保留地上。
公園內一隻隻由馬賽克拼貼而成的招潮蟹、彈塗魚與貝類等,形成一幅活潑的紅樹林生態樂園圖,周邊學校的學童可從作品認識充滿活力的潮間帶生態,讓公園成為從教室延伸的校外教學場域。也教育著人們這裡曾是一片美麗的紅樹林,對生態記憶的追憶喚起環境永續與生命的關懷。
