1 BASES RESIDENCIAS DE VERANO MATRIOSKA 2018

2 THIS THE FOURTH YEAR THAT ESPACIO MATRIOSKA OPENS THE SUMMER RESIDENCIES PROGRAM FOR ANY PERSON OR COLLEC-TIVE INTERESTED ON DEVELOPING ANY CREATIVE, ARTISTIC, CULTURAL OR RESEARCH-BASED- PROJECTS IN A SPACE BASED ON SHARING, EXCHANGING AND EXPERIENCING THE RURAL SIDE OF GALICIA, SPAIN, THROUGH RESPECTFUL RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE COMMUNITY THIS TIME THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF RESIDENCIES: A) SUMMER RESIDENCIES B) MUROS BLANCOS RESIDENCIES

3 WHAT IS ESPACIO MATRIOSKA? ESPACIO MATRIOSKA IS AN ART COLLECTIVE FORMED BY EIGHT FINE ART POSTGRADUATES, WHICH HAS BEEN WORKING ON THE MEDIATION, MANAGEMENT AND ARTISTIC CREATION IN RELATION TO THE CULTURAL SECTOR FOR THREE YEARS NOW. WORKING AS A BRIDGE IN BETWEEN THE RURAL AND THE URBAN SECTOR, OUR MAIN GOAL IS TO PROMOTE CULTURAL EXCHANGE AND ARTISTIC PRODUCTION IN ALL OF ITS SHAPES AND POSSIBILITIES, THINKING OF ART AS A TOOL FOR SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION

6 A) SUMMER RESIDENCIES ANY TYPE OF PROPOSAL IS ACCEPTED FOR THIS MODALITY. SITE-SPECIFIC PROJECTS WILL BE ESPECIALLY CONSIDERED, AS WELL AS THOSE PROJECTS THAT SEEM TO SHARE THE SAME TYPE OF VALUES AS THE ONES WE PROMOTE IN ESPACIO MATRIOSKA: SENSITIVITY WITH THE SURROUNDINGS, LEARNING EXPERIENCES, A RURAL SPACE OF EXCHANGE... EACH RESIDENCY WILL LAST FOR TWO WEEKS, TAKING PART IN BETWEEN THE MON-THS OF JUNE AND SEPTEMBER OF 2018 GOALS: - MUTUAL LEARNING - NETWORK: HELPING YOUNG ARTIST TO DEVELOP THEIR PRACTICE THROUGH CO- LLABORATION AS WELL AS MAKING VISIBLE THEIR PROJECTS WHILE AND AFTER THE RESIDENCY. - CONTEXT: BRINGING CONTEMPORARY PRACTICES CLOSER TO THE RURAL SECTOR, BUILDING UP BRIDGES IN BETWEEN BOTH THE RURAL AND URBAN SECTOR. - POPULATION: INVOLVING THE RURAL POPULATION IN THE PROJECTS IS VERY RELEVANT, AS WELL AS COMMUNAL LEARNING EXPERIENCES AND SHARING WHAT WE KNOW, MAKING THEM PART OF THE EXPERIENCE. - FACILITATING ALTERNATIVE AND EXPERIMENTAL ENVIRONMENTS OF CREATION, ADAPTING SELF INTERESTS TO THE COLLECTIVE.

7 B) MUROS BLANCOS RESIDENCY THIS PROJECT WILL TAKE PLACE FOR HALF OF JULY. THE FIRST SEASON OF MUROS BLANCOS WAS DONE BY THE MEMBERS OF ES- PACIO MATRIOSKA AND NOW WE ARE OPENING A CALL TO CONTINUE WITH THIS PROJECT. IT IS AN ART RESIDENCY BASED ON MURAL PAINTING IN WHICH THE PIECE IS CREATED AS A COLLABORATION IN BETWEEN THE ARTIST/S AND THE NEIGHBOR/S OF THE VILLAGE. GOALS -TO GENERATE A PIECE IN RELATION TO THE CONTEXT AND SURROUNDINGS -TO GIVE VISIBILITY TO THE ARTIST/S -TO REVALUE THE CULTURE AND THE EXPERIENCES OF THE VILLAGE. -TO OFFER DYNAMISM TO THE RURAL SECTOR. -TO INVOLVE THE NEIGHBORS ON THE CREATIVE PROCESS AND MAKE USE OF UNUSED SPACES THIS PROJECT IS THOUGHT TO BE DONE WITH SUSTAINABLE PAINTING, THEREFORE IT DOES NOT PRODUCE ANY RESIDUES OR POLLUTES THE ENVIRONMENT. ANOTHER PARTICULARITY IS THAT THIS PROJECT IS DONE MONOCHROMATICALLY, IN WHITE, AS AN ATTEMPT TO BOTH GIVE UNITY TO ALL OF THE MURALS AND REDUCE THE VISUAL IMPACT ON THE SURROUNDINGS.

14 THE VILLAGE: OS BLANCOS IS A CALM VILLAGE WITH MANY GREEN AREAS. THE INHABITANTS ARE ALWAYS READY TO COLLABORATE AND PARTICIPATE. ALSO, THERE IS A GROUP OF WOMEN THAT GO TREKKING THROUGH DIFFERENT ROUTS EVERYDAY, WHICH SEEMS TO BE A PERFECT MOMENT TO CHAT AND INVOLVED WITH THE DYNAMICS AND STORIES OF THE VILLAGE. THE CENTRAL SQUARE, BARS, HIDDEN SPACES AND PATHS ARE IDEAL TO MAKE PROJECTS HAPPEN AND ALSO TO COM- MUNICATE WITH PEOPLE AND NATURE.

15 GENERAL GOALS WHILE THE PROJECT IS BEING DEVELOPED WE PRETEND NOT ONLY TO MAKE THE PROJECT HAPPEN BUT ALSO TO VALUE A COMMUNAL WAY OF LIVING AS TEAM WORK, BUILDING UP RELATIONSHIPS. THEREFORE, WE INVITE OUR RESIDENTS TO SHARE WITH US AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, TO EAT ALL TOGETHER, TO GO ON WALKS, TO VISIT OTHER NEARBY PLACES AND VILLAGES, TO ENJOY NATURE, TO MEET THEIR INHABITANTS AND THEIR TRADITIONS, TO GO OUT, TO GET INVOLVE IN CHATS, ETC.
