“远离地面”的《春水》
Spring Water Leaving From The Ground
中国当代艺术在不断地自我探索与反思中,逐渐回归至自身的文化母题和历史记忆。其中,艺术家白水的最新当代装置作品《春水》便是一次深刻的致敬,它不仅仅是对自然超凡力量的赞美,更是对春天——这一象征着希望与重生的季节的礼赞。因此,这件作品被赋予了“春水”之名,寓意着生命之源与生机勃勃的春之气息。
这件作品现在春美术馆的《海上新族:远离地面》展览中展出,展览由赵松策展。《海上新族》系列在春美术馆已经历时十个年头,十年来展出了百余位定居上海的艺术家的作品,是春美术馆的品牌展览之一。《春水》中的数字屏部分与展览主题形成了巧妙的呼应,水滴以远离地面的形态出现,用反物理的方向诠释了当水失去地心引力,失重的水滴的升华,这一场景正好契合了“远离地面”的主题。
In the course of continuous self-exploration and reflection, Chinese contemporary art has gradually returned to its own cultural motifs and historical memories. Among them, artist BAISHUI's latest contemporary installation "Spring Water" is a profound tribute, not only to the extraordinary power of nature, but also to spring, a season that symbolizes hope and rebirth. As such, the work has been given the name "Spring Water" to symbolize the source of life and the vibrant scent of spring.
This work is now on display in the Chun Art Museum's exhibition "The New Shanghai-Contemporary Art Exhibition: Leaving From The Ground," curated by Zhao Song. The series "The New Shanghai-Contemporary Art Exhibition" has been held at the Chun Museum of Art for ten years, exhibiting the works of more than one hundred artists who have settled in Shanghai over the past ten years, and is one of the brand exhibitions of the Chun Museum of Art. The digital screen in "Spring Water" echoes the theme of the exhibition, with water drops appearing in a form far from the ground, interpreting the sublimation of weightless water drops when water loses gravity in an anti-physical direction, a scene that fits the theme of "Leaving From The Ground".

《春水》以独特的当代艺术方式,巧妙地将中国传统山水自然美学转化为当代艺术风貌。作品超越了传统的艺术形式,以超自然的观念与艺术手法,结合多元的材质,展现了艺术家对自然与生命的全新理解和探索。在视觉呈现上,作品突出了自然和山水元素,同时以“水”为核心,通过其质感的细腻表现,建构了一个多维度、丰富且形式深度共鸣的场域。
《春水》也是江南文化的创新融合。作品中融入的音乐元素,以其虚色张力,勾画出一幅幅江南景色的虚淡诗意,细微而精微。这种艺术表达,不仅重建了传统“似与不似之间”的审美境界,更是向“不相似”的审美期待迈出了坚实的一步。“春水”是黑白的空灵对比、是人在风景里与天地间,亦是对世界的观察与内心的观照。
"Spring Water" skillfully transforms the natural aesthetics of traditional Chinese landscape into a contemporary art style in a unique contemporary art approach. The work transcends the traditional art form, using supernatural concepts and artistic techniques, combined with diversified materials, showing the artist's new understanding and exploration of nature and life. In terms of visual presentation, the work highlights the elements of nature and landscape, and at the same time, with "water" as the core, through the delicate expression of its texture, it constructs a multi-dimensional, rich and formally deep resonance field.
Spring Water is also an innovative fusion of Jiangnan culture. The musical elements incorporated in the work, with its false-color tension, draws a picture of the scenery of Jiangnan in a false and light poetry, subtle and delicate. This kind of artistic expression not only rebuilds the traditional aesthetic realm of "between similarity and dissimilarity", but also takes a solid step towards the aesthetic expectation of "dissimilarity". "Spring Water" is the ethereal contrast of black and white, the human being in the landscape and between heaven and earth, and also the observation of the world and the inner view.

艺术无界
Art without Boundaries
作为一个融合了多媒体、装置、音乐和影像的当代艺术多形态表达。《春水》由四个核心部分组成,每个部分都独具特色,相互呼应,共同构成了这部作品的完整世界。
As a polymorphic expression of contemporary art that incorporates multimedia, installation, music and video. Spring Water consists of four core components, each unique and echoing the other, which together form the complete world of this work.
数字雨滴的奇妙碰撞
三个环绕的互相契合的长屏作为装置的主要视觉元素,展示了水滴从失重状态到溅起水花的穿越之旅。数字屏灵感来自于艺术家白水去年于RONG源艺术空间举办的个展“智韵”中的《水滴》作品,通过升级创作后,通过c4d、x-particle等软件后期制作展示了水滴的三种形态,如果说去年的《水滴》是让观众感受其不经意的美,那这次《春水》展现的就是一种水滴本身形态之美,春的来临。观众在作品间,会有种对自然、对生命、对自然宇宙形成敬畏及尊重。
As the main visual element of the installation, three long, interlocking screens show the journey of a water drop from weightlessness to splashing. The digital screen is inspired by the work "Water" in the solo exhibition "Zhiyun" held by artist Baishui in RONG Art Space last year, and after upgrading the creation, the three forms of water drops are displayed through the post-production of software such as c4d, x-particle, etc. If last year's "Water" is to let the audience feel the beauty of the drop inadvertently, then this time "Spring Water" shows the form of a water drop itself, the coming of spring. The audience will have a sense of awe and respect for nature, life, and the natural universe between the works.

春水的无形与有形
盛着水的碗型、水滴型等透明容器,以及各种筛漏,将水束成型,又归于无,变幻出万种形态。这种直观的展示方式,让观众更加直观地感受到水的无限可能。
The transparent containers such as bowl-type and teardrop-type holding water, as well as various sieves and drains, mold the water bundles into shape and return them to nothing, changing into ten thousand kinds of forms. This intuitive display allows viewers to visualize the infinite possibilities of water.

春水化作春之声
为了激发水的各种可能性,音乐家为《春水》量身定制了三部曲。基于“道法自然”和“天人合一”的哲学观念,作于2024年,猜想人与水的亲近谜语。全曲由三个部分组成,引子《祈雨》(自由的广板)、歌唱的行板《春雨》、尾声《春水》。整首乐曲中,“水”成为了最核心的元素。演奏者们将水管、锣、水杯、木碗、牛铃等乐器和物品置于水中演奏,创造出了一种前所未有的音乐体验。观众在听觉和视觉上都能感受到水的灵动与多变,仿佛置身于一个充满生机与希望的春天之中。
In order to stimulate the possibilities of water, the musician has created a trilogy of works for "Spring Water". Based on the philosophical concepts of "Taoism and nature" and "unity of heaven and man", the piece was composed in 2024 and is based on the riddle of man's affinity with water. The piece consists of three parts: the introduction, "Pray for Rain" (free broadsheet), the singing line, "Spring Rain", and the coda, "Spring Water". Throughout the piece, "water" is the most central element. The performers placed instruments and objects such as water pipes, gongs, water cups, wooden bowls and cowbells in the water to create an unprecedented musical experience. The audience can feel the movement and change of water both aurally and visually, as if they were in a spring full of vitality and hope.

永存春色里的祈福仪式
结合了音乐与舞蹈的《春水》三部曲也被拍成了影视作品,在春美术馆循环播放。观众可以沉浸在大自然中,感受《春水》带来的灵魂洗涤。
The Spring Water trilogy, which combines music and dance, has also been made into a movie and television production, which is shown on a loop at the Chun Art Museum. Viewers can immerse themselves in nature and feel the soul-washing that "Spring Water" brings.

一滴水见宇宙
A drop of water sees the universe.
从佛家哲学的角度来看,宇宙是一个动态、流动的整体,一切现象都是相互依存、相互作用的。量子物理中的不确定性原理和相对论中的相对性原理都暗示着现实世界的相对性和无常性。
From the perspective of Buddhist philosophy, the universe is a dynamic, flowing whole, and all phenomena are interdependent and interactive. The uncertainty principle in quantum physics and the relativity principle in the theory of relativity both imply the relativity and impermanence of the real world.

“我们可以借此去思考一下,一滴水离开了地球,在宇宙中的失重状态下会是什么形态。我们会去其他星球探访,监测水资源。其实我们可能也不知道,水可能用另外一种方式在宇宙中存在着。我希望观众带着一种接地气的宇宙观去看《春水》作品。”。
We can use this to think about what form a drop of water would take if it left the Earth and was weightless in the universe. We will visit other planets and monitor water resources. In fact, we may not know that water may exist in the universe in a different way. I hope the audience goes to the Spring Water work with a grounded view of the universe.
