Located in the margin of the city, Treasure Hill was a settlement formatted by the way of self –help building. In more than ten years, the place has been menaced by enforced relocation from the Taipei City Government. Later, the planning and architectural professionals also aroused the preservation movement of the settlement and finally made it assigned as a Historical Settlement with the Cultural Heritage Preservation Law and preserved it in the form of an Art Village. In the process, the close geographical character of Treasure Hill has been turned to open. The continual influences from the outlanders not only changed the life but future of the settlement. They also competed with the residents of the right of space and the meaning of the place.
Approached from observing the residents’s daily life in Treasure Hill and tracking the living history of the whole settlement, this research tried to digged out the place-identity of the residents, which was developed on the base of living in the “illegal” building. At the meanwhile, I tried to comprehend the interrelation between place- identity and self- identity. The research also focused on how the environmental past of living in the self-help buildings acted on the construction of the place-identity and the meaning of place belong to an individual. The research has found the impacts left by the environmental past of living in Treasure Hill mainly work on the paradoxical psychology of management of the environment and the attachment to the land. The subject encounters conflicts between identification and practice when managed living environment because she/he took a transitional and tentative attitude. The residents felt anxious during the process when the meaning of home and place- identity emboded because of being restricted.
External forces frequently change the space, reshape the landscape, and demolish important sites of memory and living scenes However, the drastic changes of landscape are just as the fractions of the space, that make the residents suffer the loss of place. They always feel unable to control the environment, and bearing the threaten of enforced relocated. Even though now Treasure Hill is registered as a Historical Settlement Architecture, the residents still have to worry about the rightness of their stay. They could not imagine the future of the place, and could not believe in an enduring life environment, either. They often feel uneasy. The oppressions in the political process, and the complexities of the illegal/self-help building actually disembedded the emotions of subjects to the place and thus diluted the sense of place. |
