加拿大蒙特利爾的藝術家Linda Covit在麥吉爾大學健康中心入口處創作了一個名叫Havre的藝術雕塑。
來自Linda Covit對gooood的分享。
MUHC（麥吉爾大學健康中心）是全世界一流的學術健康中心之一。這家新醫院2015年4月將在Glen場地開業。它是一個再開發項目，將會制造三處場地里最先進的設備。Havre于2014年11月完工，是分布于新MUHC醫院建筑群的11個公共藝術委任項目中最大的一個，也是魁北克政府融合藝術于建筑1%政策實行到現在得以實現的最大委任項目。
The MUHC (McGill University Health Centre) is one of the world’s foremost academic health centres. The new hospital, opening in April 2015 at the Glen site, is the redevelopment project that will create leading-edge facilities in three sites.
Havre was completed in November 2014, the largest of eleven public art commissions spread throughout the new MUHC hospital complex and the largest commission of the Quebec government’s Integration of art to architecture 1% policy realized to date.
建筑場地位于入口地面，設計目標包括對于路上交通和附近火車上的通勤者而言位置顯眼，吸引人們進入這片有許多公共花園的景觀優美的區域，并使其成為醫院的一個代表性象征。一方面Havre被規劃進這片廣闊區域，但它又保留了一種更為個人化的體驗。外形像“雕塑的懷抱”，它歡迎病人、參觀者、員工和行人通過三道“門”進入這件藝術品內，提供了一種個性化體驗。
Sited on the entranceway grounds the objectives included being highly visible to road traffic and to commuters in the nearby trains, drawing people into the landscaped site with its many public gardens, and becoming an iconic symbol for the hospital. While scaled to the immensity of the site Havre also retains a more intimate experience. Conveyed as a “sculptural embrace” it welcomes patients, visitors, staff and passers-by into the artwork through three "doors", offering a personal experience.
白天，自然光線透過這件藝術品，投映出陰影的圖案，這些圖案隨不同時刻、日期和季節發生著變化。夜間，每三十分鐘，三道連續光線以微弱的藍/藍綠色調持久灑向藝術品，這些顏色讓人聯想起空氣（天空）和水，這些都是生命的基本元素。
During the day natural light projects patterns of shadows through the artwork, transforming with the hours, days and seasons. During evening hours three sequences each thirty minutes long bathe the artwork in subtle shades of blue / blue-green, colours that evoke both air (sky) and water, elements essential to life.
