时光林位于大学生活动中心西侧。“时钟拱门”作为时光林的入口意象,寓意学校每一位学子都开启了一扇通往美好未来的门,拱门上刻有罗马数字的时间刻度,象征时间的流动与永恒。林中的“时光诗画”作品是由六个超立方体组成,借用明考斯基四维时空超立方体构想来表现未来感和科技感。时光林见证了学子在求索桥旁、积思河畔的成长与进步,象征着对美好未来的憧憬和对时间价值的深刻理解。
Located west of the Student Activities Center, the Time Forest preserves an untouched ecosystem. The Clock Arch at its entrance symbolizes the doors of opportunity each student opens toward a bright future, with Roman numerals inscribed to signify the passage and eternity of time. The Time Poems and Paintings installation, composed of six hypercubes, evokes a sense of futurism and technology. This serene forest stands as a witness to students' growth and aspirations along the Qiusuo Bridge, embodying their hopes for a promising future and a deep appreciation for the value of time.
