In the process of post-industrial transformation and urbanization, a large number of industrial sites have partially or completely declined at the material level, but the spiritual and cultural values accumulated over time in these sites are relatively stable. These 'post-industrial landscapes' face a complex dilemma of spatial functional failure and cultural identity rupture. Public art creation, with its intervention and translation function, it has become a key path to activate such landscapes. This article focuses on the mechanism of the emergence and transformation of ruins aesthetics in the industrial landscape after the intervention of public art. Based on this, by anchoring local memory, constructing community identity, and updating urban image, it promotes the transformation of cultural identity from "rupture" to "reconstruction". The study reveals the unique value of public art in connecting history and contemporary, individual and collective, local and global, providing theoretical reference for cultural inheritance and spatial revitalization in post -industrial urban renewal.
