Amazónica Artists-in-Residence is a production and research residency program located in the Amazon Rainforest of Peru. The program welcomes national and international visual artists, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary artists, curators, and professionals from various disciplines to participate in a four-week residency focused on developing projects related to:
Peruvian Amazon, its resources and landscapes, The community and city of Iquitos, Indigenous communities (Kukama Kukamiria, Ikitu, among others), Equity, liberation & ecology.
The Amazónica program offers residents an immersive experience in the socio-cultural landscape of the Peruvian Amazon, fostering critical research through both traditional and contemporary artistic practices in close collaboration with local communities. The residency encourages a complete disconnection from daily routines, allowing participants to reconnect with local nature and engage in creative processes in a unique and traditional setting.
This program provides an alternative space for creation from an intercultural perspective, encouraging both personal and collective exploration. It aims to cultivate an environment of knowledge exchange, cultural dialogue, and artistic production or research in contemporary arts.
Throughout the residency, participants will follow a structured work plan and activity schedule. The program will be guided by a local artist and curator, who will regularly engage with residents to support their artistic journey.
Residency Dates: May and September 2025
