竹林七「言」

Seven Bamboo "Song Bags"

2011

黃大仙位於當年竹園之地，故特意用竹作為作品的創作元素。作品為七個圓柱形金钃架子，架子低部用圓形綠色沙包固定，每個架子內放有不同長度的竹子，竹子中空的內部放有多粒珠子，每當搖動竹子時就會發出不同的聲響，如言如訴，如歌如唱。作品就如放在公眾地方的大型樂器，邀請市民一同演奏美妙的樂章。藉此帶給他們一點驚喜。

Wong Tai Sin is located in the then Chuk Yuen (literally, Bamboo Garden). The artist purposely employs bamboo as the element for creation. This art consists of seven cylindrical metal frames stabilized by sacks of sand, which are green in colour. The lengths of the bamboo sticks are irregular. Beads are placed inside the hollow trunks. They make different sounds when shaking, as though they were murmuring and singing. The art is, as it were, a huge musical organ in the public place inviting people to play the merry notes thereby giving them surprises.
