Description
VIVIFICAR embraces the idea of “living” and “staying”, responding creatively to the challenge of population settlement in 4 low-density municipalities in the Douro, through dialogues with communities and deepening perspectives on the socio-economic, ecological and cultural context of the territory.
VIVIFICAR develops from a cohesive consortium between Ci.CLO, the Museu do Douro Foundation, 4 Municipalities (Alijó, Lamego, Mêda, Torre de Moncorvo) and Surnadal Billag, with the cultural patronage of BPI and the “La Caixa” Foundation, for 24 months to implement an immersive transdisciplinary project between photography, new media and architecture, connecting Douro, national and Norwegian artists with communities based on participatory creation and exhibition strategies.
The project reinforces access, skills, critical thinking and involvement of the population, particularly empowering young adults, motivating them to create links and to contribute to the region''s cultural development.
