极 乐 场 THE FIELD 年度优秀作品

「极乐场」位于厦门市湖里区一家铝厂旧址内，建筑原本为厂区浴室。本次我们受佛像艺术家蒋晟之托，将该建筑改造为全新的工作室和展览空间。

「THE FIELD」 is located at the former site of an aluminum factory in Huli District, Xiamen City. The building was originally a public bath of the factory. This time we were commissioned by the Buddha artist Jiang Sheng to renovate the building into a new studio and exhibition space.

“极乐”一词源自佛教，意指向西经十万亿佛土之彼方，但「极乐场」却不意在成为一处与世隔绝的净土，而是希望能够摒弃“隔绝、遥不可及”等概念，打造一个引人入胜的精神场所。

The word Elysium originates from Buddhism, meaning the Western Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss or Sukhavati, but 「THE FIELD」 is not intended to be an isolated pure land. We hope to abandon the concept of isolated and unreachable and create an attractive spiritual place.
