迴聲社造工作隊(王雨靖×王璽×帥佩妤×謝仕淵)×董淨瑋
臺南六甲三角頭聚落介於二個水庫之間的淺山地帶,依官佃溪溪畔及淺山丘陵而生,為早期墾拓以來的農耕聚落之一。早期,以溪為路,形成以水利、農事與信仰為軸的生活網絡。隨著交通建設、農業變遷與水利設施建置,原有的水路系統與地方知識逐漸隱沒於記憶之中。本展將以「地方知識的再發掘與文化記錄」為主軸,採行「在地協作」與「共創行動」的方式,展出過程中村民回溯在地歷史、故事、變遷,不僅重構聚落的文化地圖,更促進世代之間對地方的再理解與情感連結。
About the Artist
迴聲社造工作隊由國立成功大學歷史學系謝仕淵教授與學生自主組成,長期關注臺南沿海與聚落議題,透過田野調查、社區互動與行動計畫,梳理地方歷史與生活經驗,以 「讓地方被聽見」 為核心,將歷史知識轉化為貼近生活的公共實踐。董淨瑋投身出版產業十餘年,驚喜地發現 「企劃」和 「編輯」 能與地方發生更深刻的關係,同時也為地方述說價值,就一路在路上走著,為所愛之處發聲、為地方生活開拓更多種路徑。

Where the Glimmer Resides: Chronicles of Daqiu
SHIH Ho-feng x CHEN Ming-jun
施合峰×陳明君
Taking the pre-electrification lifestyle of Taiwan's foothills as a point of departure, this project transforms an abandoned space into a "darkroom of time." Upon entering the pitch-black environment, the audience's sole connection to the past is the "beam of light" from their handheld flashlights. Through this partial and fragmented illumination, visitors are compelled to navigate through peeping and searching, reconstructing the life trajectory of a household from these mountains. This is more than a mere restoration of a vintage scene; it is an act of "memory harvesting," overlaying local artifacts, beliefs, and soundscapes with the reality of the present.
About the Artist
Born in Taiwan, Shih Ho-feng graduated from the Graduate Institute of Studies in Documentary at Tainan National University of the Arts. His family’s business in the traditional industries has such profound influence on him that in his works, Shih often conveys the disappearing cultures as society moves with the times. His visual style is known for its calmness and serenity; through his observation in the real setting, the essence of everyday life is captured on film. Chen Ming-Chun holds an MA in Design Futures from Goldsmiths, University of London, and is currently a doctoral researcher. Her professional expertise spans interior, lighting, and object design. In addition to her design practice, Chen is deeply involved in place-making and cultural initiatives. She has curated and managed organic rural markets and agricultural entrepreneurship programs in Yunlin. Her artistic practice integrates field recordings with site-specific imagery to construct spatial narratives where sound and visuals intertwine. She also utilizes ready-mades as an installation medium, reassembling and recontextualizing everyday objects to evoke new perceptual experiences.

◎ 9月5日至9月25日配合八叔焙灶寮龍眼乾烘製,《餘甜》烘培中,作品預計於9月25日開展
Lingering Sweetness takes the longans, longan-drying sheds, and longan shells of Pau-a-liau in Liujia, Tainan, as its point of departure. Through photography, video, field recordings, and AI-generated animation, the work traces sweetness, fire, memory, and the subtle traces of life that linger in the wake of change.
About the Artist

A view in idle time, Made in Daqiu
Walking Grass Agriculture
走路草農/藝團
Làng-phāng is a Taiwanese expression for carving out moments of pause within the seams of daily life. Continuing the "Idle View" series, this work utilizes sun-bleached pattern curtains gathered from local homes, treating them as silent witnesses that both form and gaze upon the landscape. Embellished with motifs of bees and local produce such as longans, lychees, oranges, bamboo shoots, and free-range chickens, the fabric brings overlooked living memories into view. Utilizing the existing structure in front of the Chiwang Temple in Daqiu, Paozailiao, the artist built an enclosure wrapped in these printed curtains, transforming the fabric into seating installations. Amidst the golden western light, visitors are invited to wander and linger, sensing the gentle, slow flow of time within a sacred local space.
