María José Romero：FLOW是一种抽象绘画，它摆脱了画布和已知的展览空间，进入到了为体育运动而设计的建筑空间领域——滑板公园。

María José Romero: FLOW is abstract painting escaping the canvas and the known exhibition spaces, entering the architectural space territory made for sports, in this case, a skatepark.

“Flow是线条在空间中的笔触，是我个人的书法艺术。我一直将线条理解为一种表现力，一种构图元素，它不仅是单纯地去回应叙事，相反，它有自己的生命力。项目中的线条是即兴的、游荡的，它创造节奏、探索空间，开拓出新的维度。当我通过线条表达自己时，那是我感觉最自由的时候”，设计师María José Romero如是说。

“Flow is the stroke of a line in space, my personal calligraphy. I’ve always understood the line as an expressive force, an element of composition which not only responds to narrative but on the contrary, it has a life of its own. A line improvises, wanders, it creates rhythms and explores spaces, opening up new dimensions along the way. When I express myself through the line, that’s when I feel the freest.”

FLOW是为阿卡普尔科Papagayo公园的滑板区而设计的，这一干预措施让滑板公园变成了一件艺术品，在人们的参与下更显灵动，市民的文化生活也因此更加丰富。

FLOW was created for the skateboarding park in the Papagayo Park gardens in Acapulco. With this intervention, the skatepark was transformed into an art piece which is brought to life thanks to the participation of the people and as such, FLOW too enriches the culture of its citizens.

“当滑冰者在赛道上滑行时与线条相遇，并与地面上所描绘的图形姿态相对应时，他们之间就建立了一种联系。这就是这件作品与众不同之处，因为它将艺术和人置于同一层面上，两者都是场所的主角，都是行动中创造性思维的体现。”

“Skaters particularly establish a relationship when they encounter it while gliding on the track and are in correspondence with the graphic gesture traced in the location. That’s what distinguishes this piece, as it places art on a horizontal level with people, where both are protagonist of the place and both are creative thinking in action.”

FLOW鼓励所有年龄段人群开展自主游戏和互动，也鼓励人们对上方广阔的空间进行思考。它既是一个观察对象，也是一个使用对象，还能顺便拉近使用者之间的距离，让陌生人的相互交谈在此成为可能。

FLOW encourage informal game and interaction for all ages also encourages contemplation of the vast expanse of space above. It is an object to be both observed and used and has de incidental effect of bringing its users into proximity, thereby making conversation between strangers almost inevitable.

城市艺术可以改善并活跃公共空间，展示场地文化和社区活力。文化与教育在本质上是相互关联的，增加文化教育的机会可以为社区带来社会价值，强化场所感、归属感及社区凝聚力，同时也会带来社会和经济的增长。通过与艺术家的合作，在项目开始时就融入艺术和文化元素，为城市提供当代叙事。

Urban art enhances and invigorates public space and shows the cultural and community energy of the site. Culture and education are inherently interconnected; increasing access to cultural education delivers social value to communities. Creating a sense of place and belonging, of cohesion and of community, social and economic growth is created as well. Therefore, the relevance of dialogue with architects, engineers, landscape designers and developers, to integrate art and culture at the beginning of any project by collaborating with artists to provide a contemporary narrative to cities and urban centers.

创作艺术作品来激发公共空间灵感可以改变人们的观念，改变我们与空间的关系。公共空间对我们的精神和身体健康非常重要，本项目中的艺术作品闪耀着光芒，创造了一个激发灵感和供人享受的场所，这是一个具有远见的、感性的项目。

Creating works of art to inspire public scope transforms perceptions and modify our relationship with spaces. Rarely have our public spaces been quite so important for our mental and physical wellbeing. In this project shines a light of a work of art in the open air, creating a place for inspiration and enjoyment. The result of this collaboration is a project of scale vision and sensibility.
