Dream Stories

Once, I was farming here,

Now, I'm serving the Community here,

People of the Community often told me that he love this Community very much!

In the Future, I hope everybody can treasure this land like me!

10 years ago, when Sijhih began to construct buildings belonging to the city, the paddy fields gradually vanished. Following that, the land of our family had to face the destiny to be changed. Looking helplessly on tiles and bricks of the old housed being removed, pictures of the old houses and my childhood appeared in my mind, disconsolation filled my heart. I kept asking myself: In the future, will we still be able to do something for this land?

After about 10 years of seeking and exploring, my attachment to this land grew stronger; creating “Dream Community” is just the extension of my attachment to the old houses. Now, I still feel myself like a country boy , only that what I'm tilling is no more corn fields but a community to make everyone possess dreams. So for a long time, I have been expecting people living here to love this place from their heart. Because after 10 and 20 years, this place will be old houses they pass to their next generations.

To reconstruct a community with new value, we hope to enrich the residents' hearts with international arts and cultures, most important of all is to get back the innocence of childhood that has been lost for a long time, because always having an innocent idea is more important that anything. Before long, Dream Community will realize the idea of “ International Community Arts Center ”, we invite artists from all over the world to reside in the Community, let them “ fight ” and make friends with us with their passion of arts, and we enjoy arts and “ make friends ” with our local milk of human kindness.
