Participants are also encouraged to propose talks and workshops, and to learn about the socio-cultural and political scenario in Brazil. The support, networks and creative environment offered by our programme encourages professional/artistic development and international contacts. The residency includes: • Art studio • Accommodation in a self-contained studio flat (optional) • One on one meetings with a curator • Follow-up meetings • Opportunity to propose workshops and talks • Open studio event at the end of the residency
