最近，英国百年老店Selfridges找来艺术家Kyle Bean设计橱窗。

众所周知，100年来，Selfridges利用“奇迹屋”（当然绝不仅于此）不断给人们制造惊喜，它们曾邀请众多的艺术家，甚至是科学家在此创作。假如你最近有机会到此购物，甚至是路过，千万不要错过。Kyle Bean的创作理念基于能量守恒定律——“能量既不会凭空产生，也不会凭空消失，它只能从一种形式转化为其他形式，或者从一个物体转移到另一个物体，在转化或转移的过程中，能量的总量不变。”Kyle Bean用艺术的方式，完美的阐述了这样的一个枯燥无味的物理定律。该橱窗展示将一直持续到今年的9月1日，而Bean也会和他的团队在这个“奇迹屋”中做现场表演，表演内容正如最后三张图所示——将无数零件组装成一辆完整的摩托车。

Currently showing in the windows at Selfridges in London is a set of sculptures by Kyle Bean, based on the scientific law of conservation of energy.

For a department store known for selling the newest in fashion, design and gadgets, Selfridges’ latest window display is something of a surprise. Suspended from giant weighing scales in the ‘Wonder room’ is a dismantled Honda Fireblade motorcycle, complete with dangling wires.

Bean has drawn on the scientific theory – which states that ‘matter cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed’ – to create five works for Selfridges. Each consists of a set of giant hanging scales on which two items are placed. One is an object in its original form, the other a transformed version of it. The scales then prove that the objects are still of equal weight, and thus still essentially the same. 

Bean’s window displays at Selfridges will be on show until 1st September. The designer and his team installed the motorcycle parts as a live art performance. 

由《VICE》发起的创想计划是一个新的网络，它致力于庆祝全世界跨媒体的创意和文化。创想计划有两个任务：一方面它是一个现代的媒体渠道，我们会不断发现和庆祝任何地区视觉艺术家的成就。另一方面它也是内容创作工作室和艺术基金会，它将制作和传播这些艺术家的新作品及其合作项目。从5月17号活动发布开始，The Creators Project官方网站上会陆续发布超过80位全球艺术家的独家采访视频和作品集。
