4. 社區藝想世界(二)台東藝術村
Rejuvenation of historic spaces has been a common practice around the world for a number of years. Now the trend is catching on in Taiwan. A disused train station in the east coast city of Taitung has been converted into a 'Railway Art Community'. In the second segment of our series on "Fostering Community Arts", we went to Taitung to find out how art and life has returned to the old station.
歷史遺跡的改造，成了全球多年來一般課題，現在成了台灣的一個新趨向，台灣東海岸，台東的廢棄舊火車站，就被改造成為"鐵道藝術村"，今天第二個"社區藝想世界"專題中，我們要到台東去看看 藝術和生活，是如何轉移到舊火車站。
The last train left old Taitung station in 2001. The iconic train station slipped into the annuls of history. But the story doesn't end there. The control room from the days of Japanese colonial rule in Taiwan, and the ancient turntable, the levers that control the points and signals, the redundant platform signs, and other relics are enjoyed by visitors for their nostalgic beauty. Manager of the Taitung Theater, Liu Meiying(劉梅英), says the historic train station is a classic piece of architecture.
2001年，末班火車從台東舊站出發，象徵著車站走入歷史。不過故事還沒結束，日治時代在台灣碩果僅存的機關庫，供火車頭旋轉的迴車道，控制鐵路的號誌閘柄油塔，還有牆上字跡已經斑駁的車站月台，這些古蹟成了現在美麗的風景。台東劇團團長劉梅英說，進入歷史的火車站，是個古典式的建築風格。

"The tracks and even the wooden sleepers we've preserved have become very popular paths for people to walk on today. It's a leisure space."
台東劇團團長劉梅英表示，鐵軌和延伸的木棧道，變成現在民眾非常喜歡的，一個散步休憩的場所。
For residents of the small city of Taitung, this used to be the starting point of journeys to other places in pursuit of their dreams. When the old station was put out of commission, it was rejuvenated into an art community.
對台東居民來說，這裡是離開家鄉，到另一個地方追求夢想的起點，當舊站結束任務走入歷史，就重新變裝成為藝術村。

"For Taitung citizens, this place shouldn't be a lofty high-art institution. This community should develop and be built together with the people."
台東劇團團長劉梅英表示，對台東居民來說，這個地方不該是高高在上的藝術村，這個地區應該發展，與民眾一起建設。
Inside old engine house number 253, artists are busy at work. One of the main goals of the Taitung Railway Art Community is to connect with the local neighborhood. So resident artists use local materials in their creations, in the hope that they can build ties in the area.Young artist Lin Hongyin(林虹吟) draws inspiration from the driftwood and other things she finds washed up on the Taitung beach, while painter Lin Baoling(林葆靈) specializes in night scenes.
舊站253倉庫裡，駐村藝術家忙於創作，台東鐵道藝術村其中一個目標，就是與鄰近民眾結合，因此當地藝術家，就地取素材進行創作，希望能拉近這個地區的距離。年輕藝術家林虹吟都由浮木，和台東海邊撿拾的回收物當作靈感，而畫家林葆靈則擅長畫夜景。

"I hope people can realize that where they are living is actually very beautiful. It's worthwhile pausing for a moment to take in the scenery."
駐村藝術家林葆靈表示，希望他們能注意到， 他們所身處的環境其實是很美的，是值得我們去停下腳步來欣賞的。
Working in harmony with the local community, the artists are bringing culture and breathing new life back into the old Taitung train station.
駐村藝術家與社區和樂相處，替台東舊站再度注入文化與新生命。
