Appreciation towards The Urban Conga for providing the following description:
“Revolving Voices”位于阿斯托里亚住宅区（Astoria Houses）边缘，紧邻阿斯托里亚滨水区与渡轮码头，是一件永久性公共艺术作品，同时也是一处社区聚集空间，旨在呈现并礼赞阿斯托里亚住宅区居民的声音、才华、故事与文化历史。该装置由The Urban Conga与社区诗人Tamra Cosby合作创作，以实体空间的形式，表达每个人都能够在公共领域中分享自己的声音、才华与观点。
Located at the edge of Astoria Houses, directly adjacent to the Astoria waterfront and ferry dock, Revolving Voices is a permanent public artwork and gathering space that celebrates the voices, talents, stories, and cultural histories of the Astoria Houses community. Created by The Urban Conga in collaboration with resident poet Tamra Cosby, the installation physically represents the opportunity to share one’s voice, talent, and message within the public realm.

项目通过一系列社区参与活动逐步发展成形。作为“From Roots to Arts: Celebrating NYCHA’s Cultural Heritage”项目的一部分，驻地艺术家 Tamra Cosby 与社区居民共同参与其中。“From Roots to Arts”是由公共住房社区基金（Public Housing Community Fund）与纽约市住房管理局（NYCHA）共同发起的艺术家驻留项目，旨在发掘 NYCHA 住宅社区中的艺术家，通过艺术创作培养更深层次的社区认同感。在共同设计的过程中，社区成员分享了他们对于这里的记忆、经历以及对空间未来的想象。这一过程不仅塑造了项目的实体设计，也影响了其中所承载的故事与图像，使这件永久性作品真正扎根于生活在这里的人们的声音之中。
The project was developed through a series of community engagement sessions with Artist-inResidence Tamra Cosby as part of the From Roots to Arts: Celebrating NYCHA’s Cultural Heritage program. From Roots to Arts is an artist-in-residence program developed by the Public Housing Community Fund and NYCHA to highlight artists within NYCHA housing communities to create art and cultivate a deeper sense of community. Through the co-design process, community members shared their memories, experiences, and visions for the space. This process informed both the physical design as well as the stories and imagery embedded within it, creating a permanent piece rooted in the voices of those who live there.

“像‘Revolving Voices’这样的项目，展现了将公共空间转变为充满社区自豪感与共同历史的活力中心所具有的力量。”纽约市住房管理局首席执行官Lisa Bova-Hiatt表示，“Connected Communities项目将居民置于设计过程的核心，确保我们社区中的艺术能够直接反映生活在这里的人们。感谢公共住房社区基金、The Urban Conga以及阿斯托里亚住宅区居民的合作，以及大家共同构筑的愿景。”
“Projects like Revolving Voices demonstrate the power of transforming public spaces into vibrant hubs of community pride and shared history,” said NYCHA Chief Executive Officer Lisa Bova-Hiatt. “The Connected Communities program places residents at the heart of the design process, ensuring that the art in our developments directly reflects the people who live there. We are grateful to the Public Housing Community Fund, The Urban Conga, and the Astoria Houses residents for their partnership and shared vision.”

“Revolving Voices”的设计灵感来自扩音器——一种用于放大并传播声音的物件。项目重新诠释了这一象征，将其转化为一系列大型八边形构筑物，沿周围表演空间的弧线排列，并逐渐缩小尺度。这些构筑物共同形成了一片兼具雕塑性与可玩性的景观，鼓励人们在这里聚集、攀爬、就坐、探索、表演与思考。类似扩音器的整体形态被拆分为四个独立构件，每个构件的外壳上都以穿孔形式呈现图像。从远处望去，这些图像描绘了构成阿斯托里亚住宅区社区的人物、才华与故事，包括人们玩耍、跳舞以及参与抗议活动的场景。随着访客逐渐靠近，装置的另一层内容也随之显现。构筑物内部呈现了Cosby以及其他社区成员所创作的有力话语、故事、记忆与诗歌，这些文字被直接蚀刻在金属面板之上。访客可以坐进构筑物内部，让自己在身体层面被社区的声音所环绕。
Taking inspiration from the form of a megaphone, an object designed to amplify and project a voice, Revolving Voices reimagines this symbol as a series of large-scale, octagonal forms that follow the curve of the surrounding performance space, gradually decreasing in size. Together, the structures create a sculptural and playable landscape that encourages people to gather, climb, sit, explore, perform, and reflect. The megaphone-like form is broken into four distinct components, each displaying perforated imagery across its outer shell. Viewed from a distance, these images depict the people, talents, and stories that make up the Astoria Houses community, from people playing, to dancing, to protesting. As visitors move closer, another layer of the installation is revealed. The interiors display powerful messages, stories, memories, and poetry from Cosby and other community members, etched directly into the metal panels. Visitors can sit within the structures and become physically surrounded by the voices of their community.

“Revolving Voices 反映了阿斯托里亚住宅区居民的故事与真实生活经历，并以一种有趣且具有互动性的方式讲述社区的历史。”公共住房社区基金执行董事Alex Zablocki表示，“这些艺术装置如同向城市发声的扩音器，让居民拥有表达自己的声音，也为他们提供了欢迎其他人进入社区的机会。‘From Roots to Arts’创造了一次独特的契机，将居民与本地艺术家联系起来，帮助他们释放创造力，并将其转化为艺术作品与相关活动。这件新的装置呈现了阿斯托里亚最好的一面，同时营造出一个友好而放松的环境，让社区能够在未来许多年中持续享用。祝贺 Tamra、The Urban Conga，更重要的是，祝贺所有以创造力和投入促成这一项目成为现实的居民。”
“Revolving Voices reflects the stories and lived experiences of residents living at Astoria Houses, and tells the history of the community in a fun, interactive way,” said Alex Zablocki, Executive Director of the Public Housing Community Fund. “The art, acting as megaphones calling out to the city, gives residents a voice and opportunity to welcome others in. From Roots to Arts created a unique opportunity to connect residents with local artists, allowing them to unlock their creativity and have it reflected in art and programming. This new installation brings out the best of Astoria while creating a welcoming and relaxing environment that the community can enjoy for years to come. Congratulations to Tamra, The Urban Conga, and, most importantly, the residents whose creativity and dedication helped make this project a reality.”

四个构件均可由使用者手动旋转，使装置在空间中的朝向不断发生变化。随着这些构筑物转动，它们会框取阿斯托里亚的不同景观，并在装置、滨水区与阿斯托里亚住宅区社区之间建立新的关系。构筑物可以朝外转向水面和更广泛的公众，邀请经过滨水区的访客停下脚步，聆听并了解身后这个社区的故事；它们也可以向内转动，营造出更为亲密、与阿斯托里亚住宅区社区联系更加紧密的空间。旋转的能力使整个装置始终处于变化之中。社区可以持续重新塑造构筑物与周围环境之间的关系，将这些类似扩音器的形态转变为一个个框取全新视角的“门户”，鼓励访客从不同角度重新观看这一街区。“Revolving Voices”由此表达了这样一种观念：社区的故事并非静止不变，而是会随着参与其中的人们不断转变、成长与演进。
Each of the four components can be manually rotated by users, allowing the installation to continually change its orientation within the space. As the forms turn, they frame different views of Astoria and create new relationships between the installation, the waterfront, and the Astoria Houses community. The structures can face outward toward the water and the broader public, inviting visitors passing through the waterfront to pause, listen, and learn about the community behind them. They can also turn inward, creating spaces that feel more intimate and connected to the Astoria Houses community. This ability to rotate creates an installation that is ever-changing. The community can continually reshape how the structure sits within its environment, transforming the megaphone-like forms into portals that frame new perspectives and encourage visitors to see the neighborhood from different points of view. Revolving Voices reflects the idea that a community’s story is not static, but that it continues to shift, grow, and evolve with the people who contribute to it.

“作为一名艺术家，同时也是这里的居民，创作Revolving Voices让我有机会重新审视阿斯托里亚住宅区——它不仅是我生活的地方，更是一个充满历史、创造力、人际关系与可能性的地方。这件作品表达了这样一种观念：我们的声音或许会随着时间发生变化，但它们始终彼此相连。我们今天所贡献的一切，都会成为故事的一部分，并在明天由另一个人继续传递下去。”艺术家Tamra Cosby表示。
“As an artist and a resident, creating Revolving Voices gave me the opportunity to look at Astoria Houses not only as a place where I live, but as a place filled with history, creativity, relationships, and possibility. This piece reflects the idea that our voices may change over time, but they remain connected. What we contribute today becomes part of the story that someone else carries forward tomorrow,” said artist Tamra Cosby

“Revolving Voices”的设计既服务于日常生活，也能够承载规模更大的集体活动，同时承担公共艺术作品、可玩构筑物、座椅空间、表演场所与叙事媒介等多重角色。居民可以坐在构筑物内部安静思考，也可以与朋友在此相聚，或在其中邂逅来自邻里的故事与记忆。在社区活动期间，周围空间则可以成为诗歌、音乐、表演、交流与共同表达的场所。“Revolving Voices”为阿斯托里亚住宅区社区创造了一处可以表演、交谈、倾听与思考的空间。通过将居民的声音与创造性表达置于一处重要公共空间的核心位置，项目邀请社区居民以及更广泛的公众共同思考：谁能够被听见？谁的故事能够得到呈现？公共空间又如何成为集体表达的平台？最终，这里形成了一处由社区的声音、记忆以及持续参与共同塑造的地标。
Revolving Voices is designed to support both everyday moments and larger collective gatherings, acting as a public artwork, playable structure, seating area, performance space, and storytelling device. Residents might sit inside the forms for quiet reflection, gather with friends, or encounter stories and memories from their neighbors. During community events, the surrounding space can become a setting for poetry, music, performance, conversation, and shared expression. Revolving Voices creates a space for the Astoria Houses community to perform, converse, listen, and reflect. By placing the voices and creative expressions of residents at the center of a prominent public space, the project invites both the community and the broader public to consider who gets to be heard, whose stories are represented, and how public space can become a platform for collective expression. The result is a landmark shaped by the voices, memories, and continued participation of the community.

“Revolving Voices的创作旨在将一处曾经利用不足、仅供人们穿行的空间，转变为一个友好开放的社区地标，并反映阿斯托里亚住宅区社区的身份与精神。通过将居民的声音、记忆以及持续参与置于核心位置，这件作品创造了一个真正扎根于社区的场所，并邀请人们在这里聚集、互动与建立联系。”Urban Conga负责人Ryan Swanson表示。
“Revolving Voices was created to transform a once-underutilized pass-through space into a welcoming communal landmark that reflects the identity and spirit of the Astoria Houses community. By centering the voices, memories, and continued participation of residents, the work creates a place that feels rooted in the community and invites people to gather, engage, and connect,” said Ryan Swanson, Principal of Urban Conga.
