Since 2015 La Wayaka Current has orchestrated alternative residency programs in remote natural biomes across our planet from Northern Europe to Central & South America. Together with indigenous communities we live with the land building partnerships over time in order to curate our programs. We connect to the rich biodiversity, culture & ancestral knowledge of a place, in order to recognize and value these things in light of our present situation and ecological crisis. Our aim is to investigate the potentials to form new perspectives through creative practice & critical thought. Whilst learning experientially from new environments we reconnect to ourselves, one another and the natural world in order to reevaluate our current trajectory and future path.
During our residencies creatives explore art, ecology and socio-political themes in a multitude of ways. We want to provide a space where creatives can develop ideas that are grounded in place and territory but also connect globally.
