Toista kertaa järjestettävän VeiculoSUR-residenssin teemana on “Strange bodies and conflict of norms”. Residenssissä puidaan väestönsiirtoa formaattina, sekä taiteellisen luomisen että ideologisen liikkuvuuden kannalta. Globaalin pandemian takia VeiculoSUR 2020 muunnettiin matkustusta edellyttävästä residenssijaksosta etänä järjestettäviksi taide- ja tutkimuslaboratorioiksi, jotka järjestetään kuudessa kaupungissa samanaikaisesti.
Tutustu tarkemmin kansainvälisen ja monikielisen online-residenssin aihepiireihin. Monet keskusteluista on tallennettu ja ne ovat katsottavissa VeiculoSURin Facebook-sivulla. Seuraa residenssiä myös Instagramissa. Aikataulu ja sisällöt päivittyvät matkan edetessä.
