關於"彳亍以行" | About  stepbackforward.art

stepbackforward.art (彳亍以行) 由李繼忠和沈軍發起，是一個共同生成的藝術項目，聚集新晉藝術家散落在公共領域的檔案與思想碎片，透過特定的標籤與圖譜系統，逐漸生成一個網上檔案庫。我們嘗試建造一種替代性的藝術「介面」（interface），在善用公共資源的前提下，透過再次分配的努力，推動個體與個體之間的漣漪激蕩出最大的「公共性」，創造一個平行、浮動於現實世界的藝術時空（spatiotemporality）。
 
項目第一階段，我們向介乎於21-35歲的本地新晉藝術家公開徵集研究、創作、生存的方法，並邀請參與者展開對話，共同探索「我們」的聯結。那重新建立的個人與群體的聯繫超越現有藝術系統的時空限制，也許展現了一個動態的香港藝術生態，同時開拓一種新的參與模式及可能性。

stepbackforward.art是一個非營利項目，因此，所有決定也基於這宗旨執行。

Initiated by LEE Kai Chung and SHEN Jun, stepbackforward.art is a collective art project that gathers the fragments of emerging artists' archives and ideas scattered in the public domain, and gradually generates an online archives by weaving into a specific tagging and mapping system. Given that the project is funded by public resources, by the same token, we hope to create the greatest possible "publicness" amongst individuals through efforts on reallocation of the granted resources. Our attempt is to outline an alternative art 'interface' that unfolds into a parallel yet more flexible spatiotemporality of art scene paralleled to the existing.
 
For the first stage of the project, we will launch an open call for young local artists between the ages of 21-35, to recruit their methodologies of researching, artmaking and surviving, then to engage all participants in a dialogue to explore the connection of the community. This renewed connection between individuals and communities transcends the spatiotemporal limitations of the existing art system, perhaps reveals a dynamic Hong Kong art ecology and opens up a new mode of participation and possibilities.

stepbackforward.art is a non-profit-making project, therefore, all decision-making is implemented based on the mission.
