“湿地是大自然给人类的馈赠，人与自然和谐共生是人类可以给大自然的最好回馈。湿地上的艺术装置不仅要给人以娱，更应呼唤起人类对自然之美的深刻认识。”

​——犬摇建筑 汪丹惟

2023年夏天的尾巴，犬摇建筑受邀参与了由SMART度假产业智慧平台和猎户座共同举办的龙江湿地艺术节暨户外露营装备展，并在这片风光绮丽的呼兰湿地上架起了一座艺术装置。这座装置以人类最熟悉的事与物作为出发点尝试以新的方式重新定义人类与自然的互动关系。我们希望与喜欢户外露营热爱自然的朋友们一起探讨人与自然如何和谐共生，让我们人类唯一赖以生存的家园可以得到可持续发展。

"The Dancing Stone Forest" is one of the four installations designed by WAG Architects for the 2023 Longjiang Wetland Art Festival in Hulan District, Harbin. We hope that the art installation erected in the wetlands will not only provide entertainment, but also evoke a profound understanding of the beauty of nature, encouraging people to experience the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature through interactive means.

石头是最常见，人类最熟悉的自然元素之一。同时，石头也是人类建筑发展的起源。几千年后的今天，我们仍能看到大量的以石为材的伟大遗迹。这是史前人类对自然环境改造的智慧瑰宝。其中最具有代表性的正是位于英国索尔兹伯里平原上的著名史前遗迹巨石阵。在广袤的呼兰湿地上，我们仿佛看到了时光流转，史前的伟大遗迹将要以更符合这个时代的姿态迎接他的新生命。

The inspiration for this project comes from one of the most common elements in nature - stones. Stones have also been the origin of human architectural development. Thousands of years later, we can still see numerous magnificent stone-based relics. These are the ingenious treasures of prehistoric humans' transformation of the natural environment. One of the most iconic examples is the famous prehistoric monument Stonehenge on the Salisbury Plain in England. In the vast wetlands of Hulan, it's as if we can witness the passage of time, and these prehistoric grand relics are about to embrace new life in a manner more suited to this era.

《跳舞的石林》正是以巨石阵为灵感，将巨石这一常见的自然元素符号化。通过巨大的白色不倒翁气柱呈现出石头的形态，并以一种更柔软的姿态鼓励人们与“石头”进行互动。“石林”会随着人们推动的力量翩翩起舞。这象征着自然的对人类的包容和温柔以待。我们希望通过人与“石林”的玩耍和亲密接触，提醒人们：人与自然只有和谐共生自然才会给人类提供愉快的生活空间。

"The Dancing Stone Forest" covers an area of 55 square meters. Thirty massive wobble columns are arranged in a double helix pattern to form a stone circle, inviting people to enter and explore within. People can enter from two separate entries and converge at the center. Unlike the hardness of actual stones, this soft stone forest becomes a sanctuary for children's hide-and-seek games. As people move through it, the stone forest will gracefully dance in response to the forces of collision and pushing.

Nature to humans is like this soft stone forest, gentle and accommodating. It not only provides a place for human breath, but also selflessly presents its beauty to everyone. To appreciate the gift of nature, the best way for humans to give back is to harmoniously coexist with nature, allowing the beauty of nature to continue for generations to come.
