• 智慧洗禮‧海洋之門-
  走進澎湖科技大學校園，最先映入眼簾的，便是矗立於校門廣場中軸線上、由兩座對峙的巨大石質量體組成的公共藝術作品〈洗禮〉。其形似緩緩開啟的門扉，以強烈的存在感迎接每一位踏入校園的學子。身為校園的視覺地標與迎賓象徵，它不僅是一件雕塑，更是一個儀式性的起點，象徵學生跨越門檻、邁向人生新階段，接受知識與精神的洗禮。
  〈洗禮〉由臺灣知名雕塑家胡棟民於2007年創作。當時臺灣公共藝術正蓬勃發展，鼓勵多媒材的運用與地域文化的呈現。作品以兩座高聳的石質量體作為主結構，中央嵌入半透明的綠色玻璃，其簡潔卻富層次的材料語彙，充分展現了當代公共藝術多元且開創性的風格。
  胡棟民的藝術風格以空間與作品之間的轉化與共鳴見長，常以抽象寫意的形式呈現作品意涵，並擅長結合異材質打造獨特的視覺張力。在〈洗禮〉中，花崗岩象徵大地根基與事物本質，粗獷而堅毅；中央玻璃雕刻的流動水紋則呼應海洋的淨化、轉化與重生力量。兩者相互對話，形成剛柔並濟的視覺節奏。陽光穿透玻璃時，折射出的光影宛如開啟一扇深邃而璀璨的海洋之門，引領學子走向智慧與成長。
  作品名稱「洗禮」源自海洋文化的浪漫精神，也回應了澎湖科技大學「海洋文化、創意科技、人文關懷」的核心理念。身處海洋島嶼的校園，以此作品作為入口意象，更具其意義——學子穿越這道象徵性的門扉，如同接受海潮淬鍊，從青澀走向成熟，從探索走向創造，〈洗禮〉不僅是一件公共藝術，它也是澎湖科技大學的精神象徵，呈現學校承襲海洋文化、擁抱創意視野，並持續邁向未來無限可能的堅定信念。
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Ocean, Islands, and Wind: A Report Series of Penghu’s Public Arts – Baptism of the Ocean’s Wisdom
  Upon entering the campus of National Penghu University of Science and Technology (NPU), visitors are immediately greeted by a commanding public art installation called Baptism. Composed of two massive stone structures facing each other, the sculpture resembles a slowly opening gate that welcomes every student who steps into the campus with a profound sense of presence. As a visual landmark and a symbol of hospitality, it is more than just a sculpture— it represents the beginning of a journey, symbolizing the students crossing a threshold, embarking on a new stage of life where they receive intellectual and spiritual enlightenment.
  Baptism was created in 2007 by the renowned Taiwanese sculptor Tung-min Hu (1967-). At that time, public art in Taiwan was flourishing, emphasizing the application of
  diverse materials and the expression of local cultures. This work features two towering stone volumes as its primary structure, and embedded semi-translucent green glass in the center.
  This concise yet layered design demonstrated the pioneering spirit of mixed media art approaches of contemporary public art.
  Hu excels at in transforming the elements of space into artwork and resonating them with the general public. He often presents metaphors through abstract forms and combines distinct materials to create unique visual tension. In Baptism, the rough, resolute granite symbolizes the foundation of the earth and the essence of everything. By contrast, the flowing water patterns carved into the central green glass echo the ocean's power of purification, transformation, and rebirth. The dialogue between the two media creates a visual rhythm that balances rigidity with fluidity. When sunlight penetrates the glass, the refracted light and shadow evoke a deep, resplendent gateway to the ocean, guiding students toward wisdom and growth.
  The title, Baptism, stems from the romantic spirit of oceanic culture. It echoed the fundamental ideas of NPU: Ocean Culture, Creative Technology, and Humanistic Care. Situated on an island, this public art at campus entrance symbolizes NPU’s vision: As students pass this symbolic gate, they shall be tempered by the tides, enabling them to develop and create in this academic journey. Overall, Baptism is more than a public art installation— it has become the spiritual emblem of the university, representing the faith in inheriting ocean culture, embracing a creative vision, and all possibilities of the future.
