Urbanization has played a very important role in China's development process, but now China is also facing social problems caused by excessive urbanization. Excessive urbanization destroys the interdependent relationship between urban and rural areas in traditional Asian society. China is facing many social problems such as demolition, villages in the city, left-behind elderly and children, which is exactly the problem of the relationship between construction, space and villagers, which is the root cause of the existing problems of the two kinds of space. Although these problems are now being addressed, how to deal with the relationship in the process is a difficult problem. Therefore, recently, China advocates the involvement of art in rural areas, and takes the artistic practice results in rural space as the main content of China's unique social participatory art. The spread of information devours all human connections in controlled Spaces that slice social connections into different products. Artistic activities, on the other hand, strive to achieve some limited connections, break through some blocked passages, and reconnect the separated layers of reality. Main purpose of this article is based on the NANCHUAN "Moving the Mountain" art project to show for society, art can play a role of translator, in a relationship of "top-down" have the effect of connection, and how to use the concept of the artistic language will be in reality to describe transformation, and to produce symbiosis of emotions. Just as Duchamp said: art is a game between all people and all times, and it can also be understood that art should express the relationship between people and the current times.
