空中城堡
Air Castles
戈拉艺术与艺术;景观:空中的城堡就像鸟巢和电线塔之间的交叉点。它们是完全简单的巢穴,但同时也是梦想、快乐和宏伟的地方。空中城堡为你提供了一个提升到另一个水平的机会。它们是不同高度的观景台,你可以从中凝视周围的环境。为了达到这些目标,你必须垂直移动,克服地心引力和你自己的抑制,努力工作,展现勇气。垂直移动是令人满意的,它显著地影响你的身体和思想,增强你的存在感。把自己抬离地面,放开地面接触,寻找新的前景,把地平线移得更远。你就在鸟儿栖息的地方,离天堂更近。这几乎就像飞行。
GORA art&landscape: Castles in the air are like a cross between a bird’s nest and a power-line pylon. They are nests of utter simplicity and yet, at the same time, a place for dreams, pleasure and the grandiose. Castles in the air offer you an opportunity to rise to another level. They are belvederes of different heights from which you can gaze at the surroundings. To reach them you must move vertically, overcome gravitation and your own inhibitions, exert yourself and show courage. The vertical move is gratifying, it affects your body and your mind markedly and enhances your feeling of presence. Lift yourself above ground level, let go of ground contact, get new prospects and move the horizon further away. You are where the birds are, closer to heaven. It is almost like flying.
