Khipuz - Music Profile
MCA’s Artist in Residence (A.I.R.) program gathers ten artists, either emerging, in progress or already consolidated, from all over the world and from different artistic disciplines for a self-developmental program to live together for two weeks in the middle of the breathtaking Peruvian central jungle to engage in a process that surrounds them in nature and immerses them in native communities and traditions throughout the national territory and its inspiring landscapes.
Author SignatureThe objective is to promote cultural exchange as well as to generate research projects for conservation and recovery of the artistic traditions of native communities in the Peruvian jungle and express it within public spaces.
During the stay, the artist in residence will attend workshops like “Dying Fabrics & Old Techniques Applied to Painting” or “Native Mask Wood Carving” as well as optional (but encouraged) yoga-meditation sessions which result in an artistic production inspired by authentic and unique techniques and experiences interacting with nature, community residents and other artists.
If you are an artist who likes to test the boundaries of your own production, take risks and experiment while exploring new ways of working outside the studio, the third edition of the Machaqmara’s Artist in Residence Program will take place in Peru during the second half of 2016. The open call will be launched soon!
