二訪馬拉邦

意料之外的二訪馬拉邦 在大湖的生活總是圍繞著馬拉邦打轉。為了替賈斯汀的創作搜集材料,哲甫介紹我們認識了住在附近的木工師傅文業(也在之後兩週內,在他的幫忙下採集到需要的木片和竹子)。 第二次拜訪文業是為了鋸木片,但這次是文業的弟弟文詣帶我們到另一座山頭找到需要的木材。沒料到的...

苗栗大湖:初見馬拉邦

山居歲月 在大湖的前幾日腳步有些混亂,住宿的地方因為久無人居狀況欠佳,權宜在國小的音樂教室待了一晚後,接下來兩天,我們好好地把兩房一廳整頓一番,九月的山腰夜晚頗為涼爽,住起來也還算舒適。 我們住的地方的確是依山傍水,馬拉邦的姿態隨著天氣千變萬化。藍天綠樹是這時節最常見的景色...

鹿港|老屋探險

鹿港,一個迅速繁榮卻又急速沒落的地方,卻也因此讓這些老房子凍結在它們最繁華的那段時光。可能是清代或是日治,各有各的美。紅磚、木門、燕尾、馬背,隨處可見。但時間是把殺豬刀,歲月的流逝還是讓這些被遺忘的老屋們殘破凋零。 在鹿港,隨處可見這種雜草叢生、荒廢已久的古厝,甚至有時候被...

一路拾遺:八月的金門

華麗的過去,有點滄桑的現在 八月底在後浦街區和Go Explore攝影團隊一起做街訪,晚上我們來到了位於後浦十六的狐狸洞,結束與老闆的訪談後,我們卻如朋友般聊了起來,分享彼此對後浦的想法。印象中,洪老闆曾經用這麼一句話形容後浦,說她有著「華麗的過去,以及有點滄桑的現在」。...

後浦橫街仔:頹屋小舖

緣起 來金門的第一週,王苓帶著我們造訪後浦的老店家與老師傅。路過一條看來不很起眼的小巷時,提起了它的故事,原來這條小巷過去曾被稱為「橫街仔」,商家雲集,是後浦街上最熱鬧的地方。街尾曾經有間當鋪,沿路有燒酒店、花生油店、木工坊、餐廳等等,現在卻大多是尋常住戶,或是看來有些破敗...
