About the event

The third edition of the residency welcomes artistic research projects and inquiries in the contemporary performing arts that confront “this time” through a broad and critical scope, whether conceptually addressing this day and age or on a methodological level.

This Time talks about the concept of the now, living in the present moment. It delves into the idea of “the doing” while acknowledging the fleeting nature of time. The theme suggests a sense of urgency and repetition, as if attempting to rectify or make something better with trying again. It alludes to confronting the impermanent and the weight of the past.

The Residency seeks to support research projects that employ performativity as a lens to examine pertinent issues on a personal or macro level. The dwell time in the residency encourages self-reflexivity and hopes to foster deeper insights and more nuanced understandings of the world, or inform personal or artistic practices.
