Appreciation towards Emilio Ferro for providing the following description:

在开罗郊区，被联合国教科文组织列为世界遗产的吉萨考古遗址变成了各世代和文化之间进行实验和对话的场所。艺术家Emilio Ferro用灯光、声音和雕塑阐述了一种独特的艺术体验，并绘制出一条能够穿越历史和空间的通道。置身特殊场地的《光之门》装置通过对门阈和光线的思考，探索了源于古埃及的意象：第一，装置将作为生者世界和死者世界之间的桥梁；第二，装置可作为一种对太阳神（如伊西斯和拉）的崇拜的象征。

At the outskirts of Cairo, the archaeological site of Giza, a UNESCO world heritage site, becomes a place for experimentation and dialogue between generations and cultures. Emilio Ferro uses light, sound and sculpture to articulate a unique artistic experience and to draw a path capable of traversing history and space. The site-speciﬁc installation “Portal of Light” explores the imagery of Ancient Egypt through a reﬂection on the themes threshold and light: the ﬁrst, as a bridge between the world of the living and the world of the dead; the second, as an element to which the cult of the sun, worshipping deities such as Isis and Ra, is associated with.

受《死亡之书》和《来世之书》两本古书的启发，光之门的发展遵循着万有引力的方向以及日光变化。两个金属结构遵循了吉萨三座金字塔完美的斜度：设计师在第一个金属结构上安装照明装置，可产生一束能够穿过第二个门户并延伸数百米的光束。

Inspired by two ancient papyri, the Book of the Dead and the Book of Amduat, Portal of Light develops following the orientation of the cardinal points and the changing of the sunlight during the day. Two metal structures follow the perfect inclination of the three pyramids of Giza: the ﬁrst guards the illuminating body and generates a beam of light capable of passing through the second portal, extending its ray for hundreds of metres.

夜间，观众可进入装置内，跟随光的方向开启一次身临其境的冒险，体验古书中所描述的古埃及太阳神Ra乘船穿越夜空的旅程。该作品可同样在白天进行观赏，设计时进一步考虑到太阳的轨迹，设计师用自然光取代夜间照亮作品的人造光，并在地面上放置一条可穿过两个结构的20米长金属线，为游客展示白天体验需遵循的游览路线。

During the night, spectators will be able to enter the installation, under the beam of light, following its direction: an immersive adventure to experience the journey of the god Ra in his boat through the night sky, as illustrated in the ancient papyri. The work can also be enjoyed during daylight hours, designed considering the path of the sun furthermore, natural light will thus replace the artiﬁcial light that illuminates and characterises the work during the night, while a metal line positioned on the ground crosses the two structures for twenty metres and indicates the line to be followed during the day.

为完善这个装置，艺术家在收录了吉萨高原上的风声后，开展了声音干预措施；Emilio Ferro对这些声音进行采样，并创作了完善其作品的背景音乐。安装在结构中的定向扬声器，改善了游客的体验，并丰富了整体叙事层次，而光的本质也使其穿透周围的建筑和自然环境，引发了艺术、景观和历史之间的新对比。

To complete the installation, the artist created a sound intervention after recording the wind blowing on the Giza Plateau; Emilio Ferro sampled its sound to compose the soundtrack that embraces his work. Directional speakers, integrated into the structures, modulate the visitor’s experience and create an additional narrative level that, thanks to the essential force of light, cuts through the surrounding architectural and natural space, triggering a new confrontation between art, landscape and history.

《光之门》是由Culturvator/ArtD‘Égypte与联合国教科文组织和埃及旅游和文化部合作举办的《Forever is Now II》群展中的其中一件作品。在吉萨金字塔的背景之下，项目汇集了Emilio Ferro、JR、eL Seed和SpY以及Jwan Yosef等12位国际艺术家的作品，作为古代世界七大奇迹中仅存的遗迹，吉萨金字塔已经被联合国教科文组织列入世界遗产名录。当世界文化遗产面对当代艺术实践：《Forever is Now II》以探讨遥远的过去到当下为主题，进一步激发人类对于未来的想象。

Portal of Light is part of the group exhibition ‘Forever Is Now II’, organised by Culturvator/ Art D’Égypte, in collaboration with UNESCO and the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities. Against the backdrop of the Pyramids of Giza, the last remaining of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the project brings together the works of 12 international artists including Emilio Ferro, JR, eL Seed and SpY and Jwan Yosef. A universal cultural heritage confronted with contemporary artistic practices: “Forever Is Now II” explores themes from the distant past to the present, to dream about the future of humanity.
