艾滋病至今為止,在大部分中國人的觀念裏仍然是一件與自己無關的事情,很少有人知道並關注,它已在短短數年裏,迅速發展成為威脅全世界的惡疾。含蓄的中國文化,使它更加成為一個隱藏的社會問題,成為更加嚴峻的風險。人們無從得知誰已身患此疾,誰將會被傳染,如何阻止。即使人們大量投入並建立了多種機制用於幫助被感染者,並試圖控制傳播的速度,人們仍然無法估計未來十年的狀況。藝術、音樂、文化以其特殊的流通和交流能力,被公認為一種特殊的國際語言。人們通過它進行各個層面的交流。更具有意義的是它所産生的深層次的靈魂魅力,可以使藝術家與觀眾之間進行自由的溝通,並産生多樣性的理解和共鳴。
“蔓延的愛”是TCG 諾地卡持續3年對艾滋病進行社會關懷的公益項目,發起文化藝術活動以此引起人們對艾滋病的關注。並在這個過程中搭建藝術家、詩人等文化工作者與艾滋關懷工作者以及艾滋病人之間的橋梁,促成他們之間的彼此認識與理解。今年我們與24位中國、柬埔寨、比利時以及瑞典等國的詩人、藝術家合作,以文學與藝術的方式共同關注艾滋病。並於今年艾滋病日12月1日舉辦展覽,這個展覽將呈現文學藝術工作者對艾滋現象在社會、人文、思想、關懷等領域的思考與討論,另一方面,我們也將看到文學藝術工作者在創作語言和材料上,展示出有關文學在視覺展示層面上驚人的創造力。

In Chinese minds, 'aids' is still something kept as a 'non-of-my-business' concept. There are few people who understand and care about the fact that this disease increases so fast, and has become a threat to the whole world. Because of the nature of Chinese culture it has been a hidden problem, resulting in even higher risks. It is difficult to talk about matters of who is infected, how and where it has been passed on, and how to stop it. Even now, when people take action and establish some works to help affected people, and control the spread, it is still difficult to know what is going to happen in the coming 10 years.
In China, art, music and culture has a very special ability to communicate and mediate messages. People are used to this way of getting information and understand different issues. Artists can speak a heart-to-heart language where age, gender and cultural differences do not matter.
"Contagious Love " is the TCG Nordica sustained three years of the AIDS community care nonprofit projects, initiated cultural and arts activities to arouse people's attention to AIDS. In this process artists, poets and other cultural workers together with HIV/AIDS care workers and the infected people get connected, the project builds a bridge between these people and promotes a mutual understanding between them. This year 24 poets and artists from China, Cambodia, Belgium and Sweden, and other countries. They use art and words as a language to show great concern about HIV/AIDS.
