Trace Residency: Reframing Space, Memory & Presence
4 days ago
Murcia
ppThe trace is an ambivalent form of inscription: it marks the presence of what once was and, at the same time, signals its absence. It is testimony and emptiness, memory and projection. From this tension, the territory presents itself as a space where human presence, natural processes and collective imaginaries are in constant dialogue. The residencies are framed within the concepts of body, territory and spatiality, understood as central axes of research and creation. In this edition, we would like to place special emphasis on the trace as a notion that cuts across these frameworks, inviting participants to explore it from multiple dimensions. However, this proposal will not be exclusive, but will remain open to projects that engage in a broad dialogue with the programme’s curatorial lines. /ppAADK Spain invites artists and researchers to participate in this edition of artistic residencies, aimed at exploring the notion of the trace as a place of transition between presence and absence, and as a tool for reconfiguring the relationship between space and memory. Participants are invited to think of the footprint as a material record and as an ephemeral gesture capable of expanding the ways of inhabiting and signifying the territory. /ppbWe offer: /b /pulliAccommodation: private room in a shared house; optional residency with a private apartment at Centro Negra facilities at an additional cost of €300 /liliWorkspace and exhibition space /liliWelcome coffee at the beginning of the month /liliUse of technical equipment /liliFollow-up on the work (mentoring) /liliCuratorial guidance /liliDocumentation /liliVisibility on social media and/or press (communication) /liliTechnical guidance /liliProduction assistance (does not include production costs) /liliPresentation of the processes /li /ulpThe Situated Residency program as a whole, considering everything necessary for it to take place under optimal conditions, has a real value of €3,400.
