The Challenges of Contemporary Folk Art Production and Creative Temporal Subjects Under a Polyphonic Temporal Structure
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Technological acceleration has reshaped the structure of time and space, compressed the dimensions of modern time, and formed the core context of the current era.This transformation not only drives the rapid transformation of social structures and accelerates the rhythm of daily life, but also places cultural forms at different stages of development in the same temporal field.Contemporary folk art production is situated in a complex context of intertwined multiple temporalities.The coexistence and conflict of diverse temporal concepts, rhythms, and experiences have constructed an anthropologically tense "polyphonic temporal structure".This structure not only reflects the cultural reality of intertwined multiple temporalities in the process of rapid transition from tradition to modernity, but also reconstructs the temporal rhythm of contemporary folk art production.With the evolution of technological iteration, artificial intelligence (AI) technology has deeply intervened in art production, which not only changes the physical and mental experience of creators, but also triggers disputes over the subjectivity of folk art creation, prompting academic circles to examine the issue of temporal subjects in artistic creation in the context of AI from an anthropological perspective.
