Chateau Orquevaux, an organization with a history of hosting international residencies, extends an open call for a residency titled "Creative Ecologies and Decolonial Futurities." Situated in San Cristóbal de las Casas, Mexico—a region marked by rich cultural heritage and complex colonial histories—this residency provides a critical context for practitioners engaging with decolonial thought, ecological perspectives, and social practice. The program is designed for those whose work intersects with activism, collective action, and interdisciplinary research, offering a space for reflection, dialogue, and production away from the demands of daily life. The residency does not offer funding, and the fee structure is currently unspecified. Artists are expected to cover their own expenses, though the opportunity to work in this historically and politically charged location may be invaluable for those whose practices are rooted in place-based inquiry. The lack of funding may pose a barrier for some, but it also signals an expectation of self-sufficiency and commitment to the thematic focus. The curatorial vision centers on the intersections of creative practice and ecological thinking, with a decolonial lens. This is not a retreat for solitary studio work alone; rather, it encourages engagement with local contexts, histories, and communities. The residency is suited for individuals and collectives who seek to interrogate power structures, imagine alternative futures, and develop work that is both critically rigorous and socially embedded. The rolling deadline allows for flexibility, but applicants should be prepared to articulate how their practice aligns with the residency's themes and how they intend to engage with the site.
