公共装置 "Entre les Rangs"是年度Luminothérapie竞赛的获奖作品，该竞赛是Quartier des Spectacles的一个，旨在挑战蒙特利尔的设计界与不同学科的艺术家合作，创造一种沉浸的冬季体验。所创作的作品由一个多学科的评审团选出，目的是刺激当地的创造力，为公众提供一个城市冬季游乐场。坐落在城市中心的Quartier des Spectacles是一个新的多媒体技术的国际展示平台，使蒙特利尔这个联合国教科文组织设计之都成为全球数字内容城市展览的领导者。
The public installation Entre les Rangs is a winning entry in the annual Luminothérapie competition, a Quartier des Spectacles initiative that challenges Montreal’s design community to work with artists from diverse disciplines to create an immersive winter experience. The work produced was selected by a multidisciplinary jury with the aim of stimulating locally-based creativity and offering the public an urban winter playground. Situated in the heart of the city, Quartier des Spectacles is an international showcase for new multimedia technology, making Montreal, a UNESCO City of design, a global leader in the urban exhibition of digital content.
从主题上讲，该竞赛试图探索和反映光与它对一个陷入冬季冰冷控制的城市居民的整体福祉产生积极影响的能力之间的关系。自然阳光不足对心理和生理的负面影响有据可查，这是北方地区居民面临的一个隐性困境。技术上的独创性为气候提供了改变的机会，其形式是提供阳光的补救成分的人工光源。设计师们被邀请在公共范围内阐释光治疗的概念，在冬季合适的黑暗日子里提供一种概念性的集体治疗。
Thematically, the competition seeks to explore and reflect the relationship between light and its ability to positively affect the overall well-being of the inhabitants of a city caught in the icy grip of winter. The well-documented, negative psychological and physiological effects of a deficit of natural sunlight is an implicit dilemma faced by northern populations. Technological ingenuity provides respite to sufferers in the form of artificial light sources which deliver the remedial components of sunlight. Designers are invited to expound upon the curative nature of light on a communal scale – a conceptual, collective therapy available during the opportune dark days of winter.
在与Udo Design（灯光）、Boris Dempsey和Pierre Fournier（技术）、Patrick Watson（音乐）、Marouane Sahbi（编程）和Landscapers Côté Jardin（安装）的合作下，KANVA的提案Entre les Rangs被选为获奖项目。该项目创造了一个大规模的隐喻，唤起了冬季城市中大片麦田的记忆，在2013年12月11日至2014年2月2日的第四届Luminothérapie期间，该项目在城市的著名城市中心Place des Festivals展出。
Working in collaboration with Udo Design (lighting), Boris Dempsey and Pierre Fournier (technical), Patrick Watson (music), Marouane Sahbi (programming) and Landscapers Côté Jardin (installation), KANVA's proposal Entre les Rangs was selected as the award-winning project. Creating a large-scale metaphor that evokes the shimmering of vast fields of wheat in the winter city, the project was featured in the city’s prominent urban hub Place des Festivals during the 4th edition of Luminothérapie from December 11th 2013 to February 2nd 2014.
项目重新审视了魁北克的农业历史，将其与当代城市背景进行对话。参照魁北克的麦田在风中和季节中的起伏，当代装置 "Entre les Rangs "由数千个灵活的茎组成，上面有白色的反射器，利用周围的刺激，创造一个不断变化的动画阵列。每一阵风都会触发柔性茎的闪亮运动。茎部放大了风和现场巨型结构投射的灯光的效果，就像一块活的画布，既能接受又能转化。 散布在整个装置中的音乐源提供了一种旋律，像一阵风一样跟随和引导着整个场地。沉浸在感官体验的中心，游客们被邀请在冬天穿过一系列蜿蜒的小路，在那里，茎干融合成一块被风搅动的大画布，被光线抚摸，被音乐承载。
Entre les Rangs revisits the agricultural history of Quebec to contextualize a dialogue with a contemporary urban context. As a reference to Quebec’s wheat fields that undulate in the wind and through the seasons, the contemporary installation Entre les Rangs is comprised of thousands of flexible stems topped with white reflectors that take advantage of the surrounding stimuli to create an ever-shifting array of animation. Each burst of wind triggers a glittering movement of the flexible stems. The stems magnify the effect of the wind and of lights projected from the site’s mega structures, acting as a live canvas, both receptive and transformative. Dispersed throughout the installation, sources of music offer a melody that follows and leads through the field like a burst of wind. Immersed in the heart of a sensory experience, visitors are invited to a winter walk through a series of winding paths, where the stems merge into a large canvas agitated by the wind, caressed by light and carried by music.
自从它在蒙特利尔的Luminothérapie节上首次亮相以来，Entre les Rangs已经走过了10多个城市。在法国Cergy-pontoise、英国Durham、芝加哥、伦敦、埃德蒙顿、乔治敦、卡尔加里和夏洛特之后，Entre the Rangs被安装在华盛顿特区的史密森国家动物园和保护生物研究所，以及波士顿海港，然后在今年冬天回到蒙特利尔。
Since it’s first appearance at Montreal’s Luminothérapie festival, Entre les Rangs has travelled to more that 10 cities. After Cergy-pontoise (France), Durham (England), Chicago, London, Edmonton, Georgetown, Calgary and Charlotte, Entre the Rangs was installed at the Smithsonian's National Zoo and Conservation Biology Institute in Institute in Washington, D.C. and at the Boston Seaport before coming back to Montreal this winter.
