Gabor Szentpetery | 海晏的象征意义和装饰品
Gabor Szentpetery | Symbolism and ornaments in Hayan
捷克斯洛伐克 Czechoslovakia

In my eyes, Haiyan Village is a wild mixture of many different symbols and objects. The village even includes various European-style houses with Greek columns, funky rural concrete buildings with different colored tiles and roofs, magical traditional local buildings using earthen walls and many wooden details,usually equipped with the most modern electronic devices such as power banks and electric cars. My murals aim to bring a new dimension to rural landscapes, adding surprise and contrast to everyday life. 

The idea behind my murals was to use contrasting colors and simple geometry to enhance the beauty of the existing building facades, inviting visitors to explore the village and connect with the local people and culture. The whole painted collage incorporates a variety of geometric shapes, symbols, colors, and patterns, referencing some recurring geometric elements present。

在我眼中,海晏村是许多不同符号和物体的狂野混合体。村里有各种欧式房屋立柱,神奇的乡村混凝土建筑,不同颜色的花砖和屋顶,使用土墙和许多木制细节的传统当地建筑,通常都配有最现代的电子设备,如充电宝和电动汽车。我的壁画旨在为乡村景观带来新的维度,为日常生活增添惊喜和对比。我在村社的外墙上用几何抽象的手法创作了几幅壁画。我的设计想法是采用对比色系,增强现有建筑外墙的美感,邀请游客探索村庄,并与当地人和文化建立联系。在这个拼贴画的概念中,我想融入各种几何形状、颜色和图案,参考村庄中存在的一些反复出现的几何元素以及一些中国传统图案。
