The FMJJ Artistic Residencies Program impacts the creation of a conceptual and differential framework that contributes to the interpretation of contemporary issues and offers other possibilities of reading and understanding what surrounds us. Other objectives of this program are to create favorable environments for the development of critical thinking and art associated with aspects such as heritage identity, ecology, or the environment, to facilitate a horizontal approach to new ways of insertion in the territory, of reading and interpreting the contemporary landscape, natural and rural space or to promote values of protection and dissemination of the natural and cultural heritage of Galicia, through contemporary art. Therefore, projects will be considered accordingly to originality and innovation, the objectives of the call, as well as their ability to create multidisciplinary collaborative networks.
