This project intended to challenge artists to perform artistic residences and interventions that would start from imminently rural/village contexts, in the 24 municipalities of Minho. The artistic interventions should be embodied in public space artworks that reflect a reading of the visual and sonic memories of the places.
The artworks that resulted from this set of interventions resignified the places, discovered and revealed old and new identities and launched a new look over an immense place where we all fit and where it will always be difficult to define what is rural and what is urban.
zet gallery was responsible for the artistic coordination and communication of this project, curated by Helena Mendes Pereira, which runs from January to September 2022.
