The Wei-Wu Mi-Mi Street Art Village is the largest painted art village in Taiwan, and a new Kaohsiung landmark that has attracted numerous visitors over the past three years. The art village was created following the Kaohsiung City Government’s “one community, unique feature” policy. Lingya District is Kaohsiung’s cultural and educational art hub, and its district office has hosted the Wallriors Street Art Festival since 2016, a festival that invites domestic and foreign artists to rejuvenate Kaohsiung’s old communities. Over the past four years, Weiwu Village, which is primarily public housing, has accumulated 106 wall murals created by 48 artists from 24 countries. The Wei-Wu Mi-Mi Street Art Village has inspired the National Kaohsiung Center for the Arts to organize immersive theater events, in which guided tours featuring puzzle-solving elements, actors, and sounds are used to guide visitors through Wei-Wu Mi-Mi Street Art Village in innovative ways.
高雄這三年新興景點《衛武迷迷村》,擄獲大小朋友前往賞遊。這座全台最大的彩繪藝術社區起源於市府推動的「一區一特色」政策,鑑於苓雅區是高雄市文教藝術重心,苓雅區公所自2016年起辦理國際街頭藝術節,邀請國內外藝術家為老舊社區賦予新活力。
主要集中於老舊國宅的衛武里社區,四年來共有來自24個國家的48位藝術家,完成106面彩繪作品,讓社區內不論是牆面、電箱、鐵皮、圍牆等等皆充滿繽紛活潑的角落。這座大型戶外美術館也吸引鄰居衛武營藝術中心設計沉浸式劇場節目「高雄雄厲害-迷走旅行團」,結合導覽與解謎元素,讓觀眾跟隨演員或故事聲音指示移動,以全新方式認識衛武迷迷村。
誠摯歡迎來到迷迷村,體驗走讀高雄、轉角遇到藝術的樂趣!
