原住民艺术家设计2026奥运会冰壶队服

2-Spirit Anishinaabe/Cree艺术家Shelby Gagnon与Goldline Curling和Curling Canada合作,为加拿大2026年米兰-科尔蒂纳奥运会冰壶队设计队服。她的设计融入原住民象征,强调与土地、水和自然的联系。以枫叶和蜂鸟图案为特色的队服在哈利法克斯发布,广受赞誉。

Shelby Gagnon的艺术作品为加拿大深受喜爱的运动之一——冰壶带来全新视角。作为2-Spirit Anishinaabe/Cree艺术家和活动家,Gagnon与冰壶运动领先装备供应商Goldline Curling和Curling Canada合作,推出2026年米兰-科尔蒂纳奥运会前的True North系列商品。此次合作于2024年9月自然启动,Goldline总裁Erin Flowers在Thunder Bay杂志和当地壁画中发现Gagnon的作品。通过冰壶社区共同友人牵线,她们与Regina设计师Steph Schmid共同工作。Gagnon的设计突显她与自然的深厚联系。加拿大国旗核心的枫叶采用流动线条象征水——平静而富有意义,反映了她在Superior湖(Gichigami)附近的成长经历。“我喜欢融入大量水元素,”Gagnon说。“我们就是水,尊重并保护水至关重要。”队服后背饰以枫叶的全长袖艺术图案,象征国家对运动员的支持。蜂鸟图案增添奥运关联,其四年寿命呼应四年一度的奥运会。在原住民文化中,此鸟代表来自灵界的访客,类似于运动员的旅行和高能量表现。“当那只主鸟来访时,就像访客……像是祖先或来自另一个世界的某人前来问候,”Gagnon解释道。她在iPad上快速创作设计,选择流动线条捕捉鸟儿的迅捷与急速心跳。Flowers敏感对待项目,意识到原住民艺术挪用问题。“你的艺术让我惊叹。我们来看看能做什么,”她对Gagnon说,确保合作与尊重。制造挑战出现,1月初延误导致为哈利法克斯奥运选拔赛空运库存,当即售罄。11月底在哈利法克斯发布,队服引发冰壶社区情感回应。老将运动员,包括Colleen Jones一代,赞叹不已。“我穿过这枫叶,执教过这枫叶……我75岁了,从未见过如此特别的感觉,”一位对Flowers分享道。Gagnon优先关系而非商业化,指出原住民艺术家报酬不足,而Flowers称此艺术为“礼物”,象征未来旅程好运。
