CRL | Culture Moves Europe artist residency

Residency opportunity for two Eastern European artists in Porto
Located in the old Freixo thermoelectric plant, Circolando – Central Elétrica is a center for artistic residencies and creation located on the outskirts of Porto, which seeks to give new meaning to a part of this deactivated industrial hub, pulsating and generating other forms of energy. In recent years, Central Electrica has expanded its focus on disciplinary intersections, promoting intersectional artistic encounters where notions of boundaries, both real and abstract, are dispelled.

With this call, two artists from Eastern Europe are invited to carry out an artistic residency in person at the Central Elétrica, in Porto, between  January 3rd and February 2nd, 2025. The results will be shared with the public through an informal exhibition at WATTS – Ciclo de Arte e Sonoridades.
