Classroom desks and chairs are what many people remember from their days as students. Artist Yen Ming-hung created Chair Score, a large-scale outdoor installation art using old chairs collected from Kaohsiung schools. This installation is found in Dayi Warehouses, The Pier-2 Art Center.
From a distance, Chair Score looks like a huge semicircular tent that extends from the ground. Up close, it looks like an artwork made of stacked brown, green, red, and blue chairs, evoking a sense of music and rhythm. This combination of the backrests, legs, and seating surfaces of the chairs create dazzling views that make visitors feel as if they are stepping into a maze. Light sifting through the gaps between the wooden chairs make sitting inside the installation a peaceful experience filled with schoolyard memories.
教室裡的課桌椅是屬於學生時期最熟悉的記憶。藝術家顏名宏利用收集自高雄市多所學校的報廢座椅,創作出大型戶外裝置藝術《椅子樂譜》,就座落於駁二藝術特區大義倉庫群的草地上。
遠看是一座半圓形球體,彷彿從地面撐起一頂巨大帳篷,近看會發現作品全由一張張椅子堆疊而成,棕色、綠色、紅色、藍色的椅子錯落排列,彷彿樂譜般舞出韻律;走入作品有如走入迷宮般,為椅背、椅腳與座面重疊產生的碩大之美目眩神迷;光線從木板空隙篩入,格外適合坐在裡頭,享受恬靜片刻,回憶校園青春時光。
