portugal: artist residency and capacity building

CONTESTED DESIRES continued in February 2020 with a capacity building workshop, followed by a month long artist residency hosted at project partner LAC, in Portugal. 
Facilitated by ECCOM, capacity building sessions focused on 'cultural genealogies', with speakers that included: Ines Camera, who co-founded Mapa das Ideias, which thrives on the overlapping of different areas such as Education, Mediation, Marketing and Management for the fields of Culture, Heritage and Citizenship; Patriicia Leal, an artist filmmaker and researcher whose work is shown in the form of installation and documentary films with a special interest in storytelling and montage; and Rui Parreira, an archaeologist in the Regional Directorate of Algarve for Cultural Affairs, in Faro, where he is currently head of the Department of Cultural Heritage, and is a fellow researcher in the Unit of Archaeology of the Lisbon University, developing scientific research activity mainly on historical processes of emergence and change of complex societies in Iberia (4th / 2nd millennia bce).

Selected artists Akeelah Bertram (UK), Stelios Kalilinikou (CY) and Anna Sales (ES) then began their artist residency at the LAC studios, creating work and exploring ideas culminating in an exhibition. The work will also displayed at Xarkis Festival 2020, Cyprus, alongside further work to be produced as part of CONTESTED DESIRES.
