Terre Immerse - Euromediterranean Creative Communities

Duration: 1 month
Theme: Mediterranean Culture

Grant: 3,300 €
Working condition: Live/work studio

Matera
Italy

Eligibility conditions

No students
Open to artists who are nationals of the member states of the Union for the Mediterranean (Euromed), with a particular focus on Southern Europe and the Mediterranean basin (the list of countries is available on the official website of the UfM Secretariat)

Additional information

Location setting: rural

Description

The project explores the themes of the ‘Terre Immerse’ Artist Residency programme, using sound as a medium to make the Mediterranean heritage of Matera’s tangible and intangible memory perceptible.

In particular, the project explores the themes of Stratifications and Cultural Cross-fertilisation.

Rock-hewn churches, underground chambers, quarries, cisterns, spaces and sites of cultural interest within the city harbour an invisible and layered acoustic heritage, just as the community is layered and shaped by historical and contemporary migrations that bring with them musical repertoires, instruments, voices and memories.

EKHO aims to create a resonance between these two forms of heritage – the memory of places and the memory of people – generating a soundscape that belongs to both Matera and the Mediterranean
