Project summary

Based on the theme of CONTEXTILE 2024 - a revisiting of the concept of "Touch" in artistic and sociological practice - the residency will allow the artist to develop a creative project in an environment that is both intercultural and ingrained in the creative, social, and productive ecosystem that determines the identity of a textile culture territory. The residency will foster collaboration, promoting unlikely partnerships and creative processes focusing on sustainability, innovation, and experimentation with new materials, as well as safeguarding identity traits and ancestral forms of "know-how." The residency will also include a knowledge-sharing programme on how modern art can decode textile cultures, as well as providing artists with new tools to boost their international career.
