臺中市公共藝術Taichung Public Art-作品欣賞

雀鳥園藝師

作品說明：
許多植物的繁衍仰賴著「鳥類播種」，透過牠們食用果實，將未消化的種籽排泄至他方，種籽即可落地生長，讓植物便能擴散各處。本作品就此原理，創造能吸引鳥兒前來自由休憩之處，定期於培養槽放置泥土與落葉，有利作品自然孵化出蠕蟲、昆蟲以吸引鳥類食用，以提高鳥類至作品四周播種的機率，促進本設置點的自然綠化速度。

Introduction：
Many plants reproduce through birds “planting” seeds after through eating fruits and then bringing the undigested seeds to other places where they excrete them and they grow, allowing plants to spread over a large area. This artwork is inspired by that principle, creating a place that encourages birds to rest, though mud and fallen leaves incubates worms and insects which birds can eat, increasing the chances of birds spreading the seeds of nearby plants, increasing the speed of the greening of the area.
