Abstract:Using Bourdieu’ s field theory as a framework and based on field research of an artistic rural construction project in Village D, Chongqing, this study analyzes the role practice and interaction of three key subjects in the field: artists, village cadres, and villagers. The research finds that due to differences in capital, habitus, and interest demands, and in the absence of effective integration mechanisms, the three subjects form a kind of asymmetrical collaborative relationship characterized by power imbalance. This hinders the realization of “ localization” goals in artistic rural construction, often reducing practices to mere formalities. The study reveals that the field of artistic rural construction functions as a temporary space where bureaucratic governance logic, artistic autonomy logic, and rural livelihood logic interact. The marginalization of villagers’ subjectivity is a structural consequence. Accordingly, this paper proposes pathways to promote collaborative governance among multiple subjects, including constructing interest coordination and positive interaction mechanisms, facilitating habitus adaptation, and strengthening institutional safeguards.
