“SouthSpark Art Fest” is themed around the fusion of technology × art × music, aiming to break the boundaries of traditional exhibitions and integrate art into the everyday fabric of the city. Centered around the Shuiyuan Market and its surroundings, the project utilizes the versatile “Shuiyuan 213” container space to showcase a diverse array of contemporary art forms, including installation, sound, performance, and interactive media — demonstrating how art can serve as a dynamic cultural language in urban life.
The concept symbolizes the release of creative energy that has accumulated over the years at Treasure Hill Artist Village. This energy is no longer confined to the village; it actively flows into the southern districts of Taipei, permeating markets and neighborhoods, and engaging with public spaces and daily life. This festival is not merely a symbolic gesture — it represents a direct cultural intervention that activates community participation and fosters interdisciplinary collaboration. Art is not meant to be merely observed; it is meant to be experienced.
