Talude
Talude is a self-built neighborhood mostly composed of families originally from Cape Verde. It has very few businesses, a restaurant, a bar, a “distillery”, and many farms created by the inhabitants. This is an impermanent territory, which is planned to be demolished in the future for urban re-planning.

Artists in Talude
Ana is a young artist from Talude. During her residency she wants to involve her community to fulfil her objective of making art accessible for everyone.
MAx will realise the project "BorderSlides" in Talude. It is an installation that can be activated by the community that will work as a border of memory, a metaphor between the immigrant context.
Manuela will develop her "CORPO-CASA" project, reflecting how the body of an immigrant becomes their own individual home. She will then realise an installation, telling the stories of the communities.
Aleksandra seeks to empower members of the community to share their stories through visual artefacts. Her goal is to provide them with the space and tools for collectively re(envisioning) the artefacts as encounters between the formal and the informal in their communities.

Rodrigo (Olinda/BRA) will carry out the research-intervention "PAI DERIVA", with the aim of mapping informal oral and bodily repertoires that co-emerge from the interactions between father and child as they drift through the neighborhood. With the child as the guide, the aim is to find clues to the re-enchantment of everyday life and the emancipation of disciplinary territories, one of which is symbolically fatherhood.
