Unique Mount EMEI Theater


只有峨眉山戏剧幻城位于四川省峨眉山市川主景区边,是由峨眉山旅游投资开发(集团)有限公司邀请中国著名导演王潮歌打造的大型情境体验剧。项目总占地面积约为6,包括云之上演艺剧场、云之中情景园林和由基地内原有村落改造而成的云之下情景剧场。

"Only Mount Emei" Drama City is located beside the main scenic area of Sichuan, Emeishan City, Sichuan Province. It is a large-scale situational experience drama created by the famous Chinese director Wang Chaoge by Emeishan Tourism Investment Development (Group) Co., Ltd. The total area of the project is about 6 hectares, including the Yunshang Performing Arts Theater, the Yunzhong Scenery Garden, and the Yunxia Scenery Theater transformed from the original villages in the base.


文学  LITERATURE

建筑紧紧扣题峨眉,以云之上为建筑语境和文学切入点,她取材于峨眉与云海,佛境与人,将自然意象提炼为文学表达,再将文学语义化身为建筑形象。

The architecture is closely related to the title "Emei" and uses "above the clouds" as the entry point for architectural context and literature. She draws on Emei and the sea of clouds, the world of Buddha and the world, distilling natural images into literary expressions, and then translating the semantics of literature into Building image.


绘画 PAINTING

建筑对于周边的田野,不是生硬的存在,不是自我的表达,她融于峨眉的山川河流中。不是要盖一个建筑,而是去创作一副中国文人山水画作,她可能最终不是传统意义的建筑,但她一定是具有梦幻场景的艺术作品。

The architecture is not a blunt existence or self-expression to the surrounding fields. It is integrated in the mountains and rivers of Emei. It is not to build a building, but to create a Chinese literati landscape painting. She may not be a traditional building in the end, but she must be a work of art with a dream scene.


MUSIC

时间的流淌历史的变迁,基地内的树木、河流还有祖祖辈辈生活在此的人,都给这片土地留下了痕迹,她就像是一首岁月的音乐。为了还原这一切,将基地内的原始村落全部保留,尽可能原封不动,加入符合主题的戏剧内容,旧村和剧场一唱一和,继续谱写新的篇章。

The flow of time, the changes of history, the trees and rivers in the base, as well as the people who have lived here for generations, have all left marks on this land. She is like the music of the years. In order to restore all of this, all the original villages in the base were preserved, as intact as possible, and drama content in line with the theme was added. The old village and the theater sang and continued to write a new chapter.


SPACE

在云之上演艺剧场建筑造型上,刻画了建筑地处峨眉山,其雄秀西南的精神气质。同时,对建筑肌理着重设计,以为母题元素,运用一系列的屋面从地表到墙身、从下到上逐渐蔓延覆盖,创造出从人间到天界的意向及视觉过渡,如同从天界俯瞰世间万物,亦真亦假,亦云之上,亦人世

On the architectural modeling of Yunshang Performing Arts Theater, it depicts that the building is located in Mount Emei, with its majestic southwestern spirit. At the same time, the architectural texture is emphasized in the design, with "tiles" and "roofs" as the motif elements, and a series of "roofs" are gradually spreading and covering from the surface to the wall, from bottom to top, creating an intention from the world to the heavens. And the visual transition is like looking at everything in the world from the heavens, both true and false, "above the clouds" and "the world".


云之上剧场,如同在峨眉山金顶俯瞰下面一样,俯瞰人云之中则通过景观打造漫步云朵之间的穿行感受,是仙界;云之下由自然旧村落改造而成,是人间。这里的空间,是有时空的意味观众先入,再登天界,如临登顶、如观云海,体验到云之上的精神境界。      

The theater "Above the Clouds" looks down on the human world like the golden dome of Mount Emei; "Among the Clouds" creates a feeling of walking among the clouds through the landscape, which is a fairyland; "Below the Clouds" is transformed from a natural old village Cheng is the world. The space here is the meaning of time and space. The audience first enters the "world" and then climbs to the "world", as if approaching the top, like watching the sea of clouds, experiencing the spiritual realm "above the clouds".

IMMERSIVE THEATRE VENUE

"Beijing Leuchte Lighting Design has orchestrated a lighting scheme for an open-air-thetare complex in Emeishan City, China, centred on a pavilion encrusted with 50,000 illuminated tiles.

The venue, named Unique Mount Emei Land of Dramas, spans 78,000 square metres and three distinct locations, including the main tile-clad pavilion, an outdoor courtyard area and a group of real Chinese village dwellings.

The Unique Mount Emei Land of Dramas venue consists of three separate locations

Design studio Beijing Leuchte Lighting Design used dramatic statement lights mixed with soft atmospheric illumination to help set the scene inside the venue, which was designed specifically for one immersive theatre production.

The play, created by Chinese stage director Wang Chaoge, explores Buddhism and the history of nearby Mount Emei – one of the four sacred mountains of Chinese Buddhism.

Among them is an illuminated pavilion called Beyond the Cloud

Aside from the glowing pavilion, Beijing Leuchte Lighting Design used found objects, such as sinks, to form luminaires for the show and lit artificial mist using white lights to make the audience feel as though they are walking above the clouds.

The venue's centrepiece is Beyond the Cloud – a pavilion clad in 50,000 illuminated glass and ceramic tiles that are finished in shades of blue-green, white and grey.

Next to the pavilion, white gravel helps to delineate the second theatre location, called By the Cloud.

This outdoor area facilitates further performances and provides an open space where the dramatic effects of the lighting design become more apparent, Beijing Leuchte Lighting Design said.

Throughout the courtyard, the roofs of vernacular village dwellings appear to be sunken into the ground to provide the audience with the sense of standing on top of Mount Emei – an experience that is further heightened by the hazy, cool-toned landscape lighting.

The final setting, Beneath the Cloud, takes over the old dwellings of Gaohe Village, which Wang and her team turned into an immersive performance venue.

Beijing Leuchte Lighting Design opted to adapt existing artefacts such as crockery, sinks and woven baskets to provide light sources for the performance, as opposed to specifying modern fittings."
