Program Description
Convergence is an immersive, 4 week, themed residency at Green Olive Arts in Tetouan, Morocco. As a single tone is intensified and enriched by accompanying vibrations or harmonies, Convergence 2020: RESONATE is calling artists to enrich their creative practice by immersing in a city where east layers with west, modern resonates with ancient, and cultures converge. Each applicant must submit a unique proposal based on the theme as a starting point for new works influenced by this season of creative community and context. The theme is intended to inspire and encourage dialogue, rather than be prescriptive or demanding. The RESONATE theme encompasses not only music, but a much broader, metaphorical application for all artists. resonate: ˈre-zə-ˌnāt (verb) - to intensify and enrich a musical tone by supplementary vibration; to produce a quality of richness and variety; to evoke a response; to relate harmoniously; to strike a chord.
