A hundred years ago the space of Oil Street Art Space was located at the shoreline with the sea at the front and mountains at the back. Today, it has been transformed into an art and cultural hub for the general public. The views of the mountains and over the sea are covered by the grown city.

Tobias Klein's work, CUT & SEA, is set in the courtyard of Oi!. Two large interventions, one excavating the ground and the other cutting into the dividing fence, allow us to see the behind, hidden and in-between of this urban space.

The incisions are closed with moving circular steel disks on retractable rails. The viewers can decide to either open or close, to uncover or hide the natures of the city and the new relationship between human being, the cut earth and the revealed sky.

一百多年前,油街實現是沿海而置、背靠山巒的休憩用地。今日已變成大家交流藝術和文化空間。山和海的景色都被城市覆蓋了。

Tobias Klein 的作品《揭視點》會放置在油街實現的庭院。兩個大型的切口,一個把草地挖開和另一個穿透分隔的圍板,讓大家窺探城市空間的背後,隱藏其中的一面。

切口由在伸縮軌道上的圓形圍板覆蓋。觀眾可以決定打開或是關上圍板,去揭開或隱藏城市的面貌與人類、挖開的泥土和展露的天空之間的新關係。
