New Residency at the Edge of the World

The launch of 'Patagonia 43°S,' a new artist residency currently in development stages in the remote lands of Patagonia, has been announced. Slated to begin in 2026, this program aims to serve as a nexus for contemporary and creative practices centered on ecology, offering a unique opportunity for these practices to evolve, develop, and connect with the territory.

Constructed on the foundation of in-depth local research and connections, the vision behind this residency is to challenge and redefine narratives in a world driven by ecological imperatives. It seeks to inspire fresh perspectives on the intersection of artistic, scientific, and contemporary creative practices in addressing the pressing ecological challenges of our time.

'Patagonia 43°S' aspires to nurture a diverse array of voices that can articulate the intricate interactions between humanity and the more-than-human realms. It positions itself as not merely a residency but a platform for meaningful dialogues and the development of projects that resonate with a broader ecological narrative, facilitated by La Wayaka Current.

By exploring the connections between creative practices, contemporary discourse, and environmental stewardship, the project aims to lay the groundwork for a new form of consciousness in aesthetics and ecological collaboration. This initiative invites a profound understanding of our planet and encourages a reimagining of our interactions with nature at the edge of the world.
