水，是一种物质也是一种能量，可以是猛烈且自由的，也可以是包容且柔软的。水作为一种象征，构成中国早期哲学对自然、道德、社会的基本隐喻结构，从“上善若水，水善利万物而不争”，悟出“性犹湍水也”。水是文化融汇贯通的见证者，它在有形与无形之间穿梭，水作为文化的载体见证了河姆渡文化的孕育发展。在历史的车轮之下，传承着不同文明独特的文化气质与审美观念。
水是人类赖以生存的资源，也蕴藏着无穷尽的生命力。对于现代文明而言，水是农业生产的命脉，是工业发展的基础。随着城市化进程的发展，仅占地球陆地面积三分之一的城市水源集水区将为全球三分之二的人口提供生产生活用水。而今四明湖已被列入一级饮用水源保护区，见证了四明山的人文变迁，1958年的夏天，余姚遭遇整整100天的干旱，姚江咸潮倒灌，塘库湖泊干涸，农业严重减产，人畜饮水都成严重问题。由此四明湖水库开始动工兴建，在那个工业不发达，物资缺少的年代，建设者们依靠原始、简陋的工具完成了四明湖蓄水区的修建，蓄水区内大小33个村落完成“大移民”。
全世界的水都会重逢，本次展览基于人与自然和谐共生的美好愿景之下，对于“水”这一主题展开思考与对话，跨越文化背景的鸿沟探索艺术表达的复杂与多样性。水作为一种流动的媒介解放了物体或固定形式的限制与束缚，希望通过展览将不同形态的艺术创作汇聚于此，在不同意象之间建立新的联系，以艺术为媒介发起数字游民“回迁”计划。
山水之下，乡野之间，乘物以游心。
Water is a material and the part of energy, which can be fierce and free, as well as tolerant and soft. As a symbol, water forms the basic metaphorical structure of China's early philosophy on nature, morality, and society. From the saying "The highest goodness is like water. Water benefits all things without contention", we can comprehend "human nature is like the turbulent water". Water is a witness to the integration of cultures, moving between the tangible and intangible. It serves as a carrier of culture, witnessing the development of Hemudu culture. Under the wheel of history, it inherits the unique cultural temperament and aesthetic concepts of different civilizations.
Water is an indispensable resource for human survival and contains boundless vitality. For modern civilization, water is important for agricultural production and the foundation of industrial development. With the development of urbanization, the water source catchment areas of cities, which only account for one-third of the land area of the earth, will provide production and domestic water for two-thirds of the global population. Today, the Siming Lake has been listed as a first-grade drinking water source protection area, witnessing the cultural changes of Siming Mountain. In the summer of 1958, Yuyao suffered from a drought lasting 100 days. The saltwater from the Yao River poured into the freshwater river, and the ponds and lakes dried up, leading to a severe reduction in agricultural production and serious problems in drinking water for both humans and animals. Therefore, the construction of Siming Lake Reservoir was launched. In an era when the industry was underdeveloped and materials were scarce, the builders relied on primitive and crude tools to complete the construction of the Siming Lake water storage area, and 33 villages of different sizes in the water storage area completed the "great migration".
All the water in the world will be reunited. This exhibition explores the complexity and diversity of artistic expression across cultural contexts based on the vision of a harmonious coexistence of man and nature under the theme of ‘Water’. As a flowing medium, water breaks the limitations and restrictions of objects or stationary forms. We hope to bring together different forms of artistic creation in this exhibition, to establish new connections between different images, and to initiate a ‘return’ programme for digital nomads through art.
Between the landscape and the countryside, it is a pleasure to be in the midst of it all.
