摘要

本文对景德镇的年轻个体手工业工人进行了为期四个月的民族志田野调查,探讨了与手工业相关的不同身份和新兴文化,这些身份和新兴文化不同于中国主流媒体对手工业者的流行想象,或称手工业人,主要关注老一辈。通过参与观察、深度访谈、日记法等方法,笔者发现,在景德镇近年来的手工个体户浪潮中,“手工艺人”或“手工艺人”的形象受到青睐的同时,这些工人并没有完全认同自己是手工艺人,传统的手工艺人特征是专业、完美、热情和坚持;也不是作为艺术家。相反,他们被定位在不同的身份之间,例如传统工匠,工匠,艺术家-手工艺工人和艺术家。我认为,根据不同的场合和目标受众,在不同的身份之间摇摆,不仅让景德镇的个体户手工艺人摆脱了老一代手工艺传统的单调套路和父权规范,也促进了在一个正在变化的手工艺行业中重新配置手工艺身份。其次,我发现在景德镇的工艺产业中,创意被强调在自我定位上,成为获得认可、地位和流动性的另一种手段。基于这些讨论,本研究提供了景德镇一种新的手工艺劳动形式的更全面的图景。

Identity Navigation and Self-Positioning in a Changing Craft World: Creativity and Cultures of Emerging Self-Employed Craft Workers in Jingdezhen
Following four-months of ethnographic fieldwork among the young, self-employed craft workers in Jingdezhen, this article explores the diverse identities and emerging cultures associated with craft that differ from the popular imaginaries of craftspeople, or shouyiren, in the Chinese mainstream media that focus on the older generations. By conducting participant observation, in-depth interviews, and the diary method, I found that while the profiles of “craft workers” or “craftspeople” are favoured by the recent waves of self-employed craft workers in Jingdezhen, these workers do not fully identify as craftspeople, traditionally characterised by their professionalism, perfectionism, enthusiasm, and persistence; nor as artists. Instead, they are positioned in between different identities, such as traditional craftsman, workman, artist-crafts worker, and artist. I argue that the wavering between different identities according to the occasion and targeted audience not only allows self-employed craft workers in Jingdezhen to escape from the monotonous routines and patriarchal norms of the older generations’ craft conventions, but also facilitates a re-configuration of craft identities within a craft industry that is changing. Secondly, I found that creativity is emphasised in their self-positioning and becomes an alternative means of achieving recognition, status and mobility in Jingdezhen’s craft industry. Based on these discussions, the study provides a fuller picture of a new form of craft labour developing in Jingdezhen.
