Appreciation towards International Garden Festival + Reford Gardens for providing the following description:

2022年（第23届）国际花园节在魁北克Grand-Métis的Reford Gardens如期举办，本届的主题为“适应力”（Adaptation），揭示了我们（尤其是在过去两年）所面临的现实。为了生活和生存，人类与大自然一样，必须展现出足够的适应力和恢复力。本届花园节将展出至2002年10月2日。

The five new gardens of the International Garden Festival, presented at the Reford Gardens / Jardins de Métis until October 2 2022, are inspired by the theme “Adaptation”, a reality we are facing, especially in the last two years. To live and survive, humans, like nature, must show adaptation and resilience. Twelve designers from Canada, France and the United States invite visitors to come and reflect on this daily challenge.

2022年国际花园节的5个新花园：
New gardens of the International Garden Festival

森林堡垒
FORTERESSES
设计者：Maison029 [Eadeh Attarzadeh, Lorenzo Saroli Palumbo]
加拿大蒙特利尔，Montréal (Québec) Canada

森林堡垒（Forteresses）是对森林的一次象征性的干预，它提出了一种激进的方法来保护植物群免受其掠夺者的侵害，而这个掠夺者正是我们自己。模块化防御系统的几何造型适应了每棵树的尺寸、类型和年龄。森林堡垒强调了这些树的几何之美，鼓励观众反思他们对环境带来的影响，同时也让他们了解到：植物群往往很难保护自己。

Forteresses is a symbolic intervention within the forest, proposing an aggressive method to protect our flora from its greatest predator: ourselves. The geometry of each modular defensive system adapts to the size, type and age of each tree. Forteresses is meant to be appreciated for the beauty of its geometries in addition to encouraging visitors to question the impact they have on their environment and reminding them that our flora is often unable to protect itself.

地衣
LICHEN
设计者：Marie-Pier Gauthier-Manes, Chloé Isaac, Victor Roussel
加拿大蒙特利尔/法国巴黎，Montréal (Québec) Canada / Paris, France

地衣是一种有感知的可塑的生物体，会根据地形、湿度和温度的不同而改变形态。该装置通过1200个手工制作的陶土器还原了地衣的这种特质。陶土的排水和保水能力能够让土壤得到更持续的灌溉并保持潮湿，从而让那些对温度和干旱特别敏感的植物能够平静地生长。装置的热变色处理可根据温度改变外观，在整个夏季呈现出不同的色彩。

The lichen is a perceptive, malleable and mutable organism. It metamorphoses in contact with the topography, humidity and ambient temperature. Inspired by terracotta pots, real archetypes in gardens, this installation is composed of 1,200 hand-made earthenware rings that are fired in an outdoor kiln right here at the Jardins de Métis. The drainage and water retention capabilities of this material allow for both a more constant irrigation of the soil and a longer retention of moisture. This environment allows plants that are particularly sensitive to temperature variations and drought to grow peacefully. Its thermochromic treatment changes its appearance according to the temperature to reveal different colours throughout the summer season.

重力场
GRAVITY FIELD
设计者：TERRAIN WORK [Theodore Hoerr, Rebecca Shen, Kelly Watters]
美国纽约，New York, États-Unis

重力场（Gravity Field）展示了植物在极端环境下的强大适应能力。装置中的“向日葵”是倒过来种植的，但当它们向着太阳生长时，会变得弯曲而无视重力的存在。观众可以重复参观这个装置，体验植物的向光性、向地性和向阳性。虽然未来是不确定的，但我们能够从植物和所有生物的强大生命力中感受到乐观的态度。

Gravity Field demonstrates the robust adaptation of plants in even extremely strenuous conditions. The sunflowers are grown upside-down but will bend up as they grow towards the sun, defying gravity. Visitors can visit the installation numerous times to experience how adaptable plants are to their circumstances: phototropically, gravitropically, and heliotropically. While the future is uncertain, Gravity Field spotlights the powerful resilience of nature and sees optimism in the ability of plants, and all organisms, to adapt and thrive.

八座山丘
LES HUIT COLLINES
设计者：ONOMIAU [Noël Picaper]
法国勒瓦卢瓦-佩雷，Levallois-Perret, France

这八个山形体量被构想为持续进化的结构。借助无生命材料和有机材料，它们创造出了生命体的效果。山丘般的景观能够为人类和动物（尤其是鸟类）提供多样的体验，包括座位区、微型花园、沉思空间和生态水库等，游客们可以利用这些空间来进行丰富的娱乐和休闲活动。

Conceived as evolving structures, those eight hills imagine biological spatialities. Through inanimate and organic materials, they create life effects. A hilly landscape then appears, capable of offering various experiences to humans as well as to non-humans (birds in particular). Serving as a seating area, a micro-garden, a contemplative space and an ecological reservoir, this project offers visitors a multitude of spatial sequences to practice, seating, hiding places and amphitheatre and more.

有限的森林，无限的空间？
FORÊT FINIE, ESPACE INFINI?
设计者：Antonin Boulanger Cartier, Pierre-Olivier Demeule, Melaine Niget
加拿大魁北克，Québec (Québec) Canada

从远处看，这个装置就像是一堆被锯过的木头，等待着木匠将它们用到下一个项目中去。被覆盖在塑料防雨布下方的，是一个由木质板条精心组装成的结构，其巧妙的排列方式为观众提供了一条虚实相间的游览路径，同时引发他们的思考：为什么要追求无限的境界？它们不是被包围在防雨布里吗？当他们从装置中瞥见高大的树木和头顶上的天空，一种想法随即产生：如果我们建造的空间来自于一个资源有限的世界，那么它就不可能是无限的，那么，这片精心构建的森林又是否可以是无限的呢？

From a distance, Forêt finie, espace infini?, takes on the appearance of a pile of sawn wood that a carpenter might have placed there while waiting for his next project. This defined form covered with a plastic sheeting waits in the summer heat. By approaching, a section of the tarpaulin is unhooked, and you are invited to slip into it. Inside, a structure made of finely assembled wooden slats reveals a path modulated by a play of solids and voids. What are all these cleverly arranged slats and why do they seek to reach the infinite? Aren’t they constrained by this tarpaulin that can be seen from the outside? Looking up at the sky, a brief glance at the tall trees suggests a final thought: if the space we build emanates from a world of finite resources and therefore cannot be infinite, could this skillfully sculpted forest able to be?
