Program Description

Residents have the opportunity to create new situations, narratives and collaborative projects, based on the experiences of a cultural exchange occurred during each investigation. Residents also get the chance to share their work in public events, usually hosted in one of our peer art-spaces in the City. The main goal of the Lab is to offer a critical and creative platform that can inform your regular art-practice while considering the context of Mexico City and its Valley. Via a collaborative hosting, this residency works with the engagement of other independent art-spaces, peers. We want to sustain a fair art- mobility, while bringing artists from around the globe that can also be relevalnt in the exchange of art making as knowlange with the local art practicioners that are part of our community.
