In the past, Taiwan's art villages have usually come into being when the government let out some empty homes to artists, providing them with a space in which to create on their own. This approach has led to a lack of interaction between the artists and the surrounding neighborhood.
台灣過去的藝術村，多是公家單位讓出空房舍後，讓創作者在其間獨立創作，不過藝術家卻常和周遭脈絡缺乏互動。
