香港大學設計建造工作坊 WINTER 2022 HKU
DESIGN BUILD WORKSHOP
2022年冬，二十四位香港大學建築學系學生沿香港沙頭角谷埔村海畔堤岸為行山遊人建造了一組輕木結構。我們的工作主要源於Bruce Chatwin 鏡頭下德國人類學家 Maria Reiche 的工作啟發——搬運、步行、瞭望、記錄——她利用梯子完成了對納斯卡線的地景記錄，並提示了將建築作為工具聯繫個體與地理的可能性，思考利用建築幫助人類理解地域的秘密與潛能。我們的輕木結構引導登山的遊人在休憩中與周圍地景展開對話——漲落的潮汐，紅樹林、候鳥、山麓村莊、風水樹林、以及沙頭角海對岸快速的都市發展。我們希望通過重塑個體與周圍環境的關係，思考與自然共生的可能，並進一步啟發建築與保育和發展的辯證想象。
In January 2022, 24 undergraduate students from HKU Architecture designed and built four sets of timber structures along the Kuk Po village water dike. We are interested in how Bruce Chatwin captured Maria Reiche’s actions - carrying, walking, looking, measuring - and her use of a ladder to understand the Nazca stone lines. It implies a technique of conceiving architecture as a tool to establish our bodily relationship to geography, as well as its efficacy to help humans make sense of the secrets and potentialities of the territory.
At Kuk Po, each structure invites visitors to orient their bodies towards the surrounding landscape and open up new vista: rising tides, mangroves, trees, migratory birds, hillside villages, Feng Shui forest, and the rapid urban development on the other side of the Starling Inlet. By rebuilding our bodily relationship with the territory, we rethink how to live with nature and contemplate the dialectic relationship between conservation and development.
