《M+ 遊戲地景》
2021
DAKIN HART:
Noguchi really was trying to make things that are like music, in the sense that they bypass the conscious mind and they go straight to the heart, straight to the core, straight to the spirit.
PRESENTER:
That’s Dakin Hart, talking about Isamu Noguchi – one of the twentieth century’s most acclaimed sculptors. The otherworldly playground here on the M+ terrace is not an original Noguchi, but one inspired by similar designs from across his impressive career. All of the elements – the mound, the pyramid, the eight-faced tetra – speak directly to Noguchi’s understanding of play: they're irregular, they play with levels, and they sit somewhere ambiguous on the spectrum from natural to manmade.
Dakin, from the Noguchi museum in New York, worked with M+ on the project. He tells us more.
DAKIN HART:
Noguchi really looked to nature and Noguchi’s whole concept of play was that, if you think about nature, think about the ocean or a mountain or a forest, it's the most brilliant conceivable playground equipment: because a forest doesn't tell you how to play with it. An ocean doesn't tell you what to do with it. We all just sort of naturally seem to know, and the options are infinite. So, Noguchi set out to make playgrounds that had that same quality, which is that they would inspire a sense of discovery and would be open-ended.
PRESENTER:
We asked Dakin how it felt to have this new design ‘landing’ in the middle of Hong Kong.
DAKIN HART:
Actually, I think to describe this ‘Playscape’ as landing in the middle of Hong Kong is a very good description. And Hong Kong is so fortunate to have some of the most beautiful natural features imaginable: the power of the water and the intricacy and the divergences in scale of the surrounding islands and mountains, and all of that is so extraordinary. And then you add the densest, and most imaginatively built, physical environments, man-made physical environments. You overlay those and then make it all visible from one spot. And it's all going to be visible from the terraces at M+. So, getting to put a playground there is just an incredible honour really. And I, I know it's one that Noguchi would have relished.
PRESENTER:
Standing here, on the M+ Terrace, how does this ‘Playscape’ make you feel? We encourage you – whatever your age! – to explore it in your own way, and immerse yourself in Noguchi’s vision.
