紙寮坑藝術農工場 Paper Hut Stream artlabor farm, a brief introduction


我們位在埔里的桃米坑,順著桃米溪的七條源頭之一,流經工場的就是紙寮坑溪。地處山坳,這裡是休耕近20年的水稻田,還看得見前人堆砌石塊留下的痕跡,再往裡邊走便是無人開發的原始叢林。

為保持土地與水質乾淨,我們不用化學清潔劑、農藥、除草劑…等,讓一切廚餘、排泄重新回到自然的循環中,同時也從城市中蒐集剩餘資源,任何在城市中被丟棄的物資,不論是淘汰的大門、桌椅、少用的電器…等在紙寮坑藝術農工場都有機會被派上用場

我們於2015年春天正式啟動,附近的著名景點桃米生態村、紙教堂等,常是遊客駐留的地方,目前正嘗試往集體生活工作場的方向邁進,未來將往藝術村的方式繼續耕耘,開放任何形式的勞動/藝術/實驗工作者進駐園區,也持續歡迎有意願想與我們一同工作的朋友們自我推薦,加入園區建設與經營行列!

Paper Hut Stream artlabor farm is located at Taomi, Puli Township, Nantou County. On the Taiwan-Provincial-Highway No.21 to Sun Moon Lake, along one of the seven Taomi stream is where Paper Hut creek lie aside the farm. Before years of fallow, the valley was a paddy field. You could find the trace of cairn stacked by previous land users. And if you go deeper into the valley there is a virgin forest waiting for explore.

We do not use any chemicals or pesticide here in order to maintain a healthy land and water source, we recycled everything from leftovers to faeces. We also scavenge whatever we could use from city. Whether it is worn door, desk chairs, or electronics that barely used, all will be put into good use in the art labor farm.

We are officially opening at spring, 2015. Tourists' spots include Taomi community, Paper Dome and more. Right now we are undergoing a transition into a collective living farm. In the future, we hope to build an artist in residence community, a place for any kind of worker/artist/experimentalist to come. We welcome you to recommend whoever you think might be interested in the same direction to us, let's do it together!
