“ 海当一个人以眺望迫使海倍加荒凉 “

----杨炼《大海停止之处》01

Wutopia Lab把光明食品(集团)下属东滩源(前哨农场原12连)的一个废弃水塔改建成了献给所有在绝望时刻做出英雄行为的普通人们的凡人纪念馆 Memorial of Everyman。


Wutopia Lab transformed an abandoned water tower at Dongtanyuan (the former 12th Company of Qianshao Farm), a subsidiary of Bright Food (Group), into the Memorial of Everyman, a memorial to all the ordinary people who performed heroic acts in desperate times.

绝望

当你绝望,

心跳得很慢,要停下来了!

要喘不过气了!

出汗,视力模糊,肢体僵硬,大脑一片空白了。

慢慢滑倒,缩成了一团,

空气像薄膜紧紧包裹着你。

有时悲号,有时叫不出来。

命运最后一击,就这样,来吧。


Desperate

When you're desperate.

Your heart is beating so slow it's going to stop!

Going out of breath!

Sweating, blurred vision, stiff limbs, your mind goes blank.

Slowly sliding down, you are shrinking into a ball

The air wraps tightly around you like a film.

Sometimes you trumpet, sometimes you can't scream.

The last blow of fate, that's it, come on.

▽改造前后对比

医生轻声讲着她[1]的病情。

我就像被抛上时间浅滩的鹦鹉螺,

色泽鲜艳却正在失去活力,绝望。


The doctor spoke softly about her [1] condition.

I was like a nautilus thrown into the shallows of time.

Brightly colored but losing its vitality, desperately.

以身堵漏

陆静娟[2],跳进了缺口。

冬季的水刺穿了骨头。

冬季的水要淹没围垦的土地。

绝望


Plugging leaks with one's body

Lu Jingjuan [2], jumped into the gap.

The cold water pierced into the bones.

The cold water to drown the polder.

Despreately.

大家,都跳进了缺口。

“人就像波浪,就是大海的样子。”

拜年潮[3]低了头,

在小洪坝[4]外叹着气。

希望


Everyone, jumped into the gap.

"People are like waves, that's what the sea is like."

The great wave [3] lowered its head and

sighed outside the small flood dam [4].

Just like hope

记忆是重新创造

2021年了

织布厂是酒店了,是会议中心。

边上的水塔,有些寂寞。

高级套房,

私密的下午茶空间,

它听到了关于未来的窃窃私语。

绝望


Memory is recreating

It's 2021.

The weaving factory is a hotel now, a conference center.

The water tower on the side, lonely.

Superior suite.

A private space for afternoon tea.

It hears whispers about the future.

Desperately

我却听到了大地上回荡的记忆

不要忘了

陆静娟们

希望


Instead I hear memories echoing from the earth

Don't forget

Lu Jingjuan's

Hope

凡人纪念堂

陆静娟们是上海。

是不太为人熟悉的上海,

那个集体主义和个人勇气的上海

和,让潮水叹气的号子

不要忘记了吧。


Memorial of Everyman

Lu Jingjuan's is Shanghai.

It is the less familiar Shanghai.

That Shanghai of collectivism and individual courage

and, the horn that makes the tide sigh

Please don't forget it.

水塔应该是一个纪念馆了,

那些在绝望中

奋力一击的普通人啊。

都值得被记住哪。

英雄的凡人。


The water tower should be a memorial to

Those in despair

The ordinary people who fought hard in despair.

All deserve to be remembered.

Heroic mortals.

Tower into tower

84根细细的金杆,

构成了金色的塔。

这是金色的陆静娟们

以身堵漏,

金塔插在了水塔中。


Tower into tower

84 thin golden rods that

form the golden tower.

This is the golden Lu Jingjuans'

plugging the leaks with their bodies.

The golden tower was inserted in the water tower.

“永远的纯真年代”

闪闪发光的螺旋楼梯,100级。

从1921到2021。

普通人

在荒滩上创造丰收

才有

更多的普通人

在上海创造繁荣。

“上海是我长大成人的所在,

带着我所有的情怀。”

低头看

是上海啊


Age of eternal innocence

Glittering spiral staircase, 100 steps.

From 1921 to 2021.

Ordinary people

Creating a bountiful harvest on a barren beach

before there are

more ordinary people

create prosperity in Shanghai.

"Shanghai is where I grew up and became an adult.

with all my sentiments."

Now, Look down

It's Shanghai.

灯塔

光在水泥墙壁上

凿了个三角

“万物皆有罅隙,

那是光照进来的地方”


Light tower

Light shines on the concrete wall

A triangle was cut

"There is a gap in everything.

That's where the light shines in"

金塔的玻璃顶

会发光

那是光明顶

水塔是灯塔了

“生命皆圣洁,活着即喜悦”


The glass roof of the golden tower

Glows

That's the top of the spirit.

The water tower is now a light tower

"All life is holy, and to live is joy"

希望

现在,她很好

现在,她的呼吸声就像甘霖

绝望

她和我一起奋力一击

希望


Hope

She is fine now

Her breath sounds like sweet rain

From Despair

She fights with me

To Hope

有一种英雄主义

走100级台阶,很累,

但头顶的光线越来越强。

最后站在楼梯的顶端,你喘着气,

继续喘着气。

然后向着东方看去,

wow,

远处地平线一条细长围垦的边界线,连绵不断,

仿佛无数人站在水里[5]

那就是“大海停止之处”。
