El Molino — Temporal Laboratory — Situated Practices in the Environment
Overview
El Molino operates as a temporal laboratory, a residency conceived for practitioners whose work engages the environment through situated, place-responsive methods. The program is open to poets, photographers, dancers, and visual artists, reflecting a curatorial commitment to interdisciplinary dialogue and the porous boundaries between creative disciplines. Rather than a conventional retreat, El Molino positions itself as a laboratory—a space where process, experimentation, and critical inquiry into environmental questions are foregrounded. The residency is rolling, meaning applications are accepted on an ongoing basis without a fixed deadline. This structure allows for responsive scheduling and suggests an institutional flexibility attuned to the rhythms of artistic research. While the precise terms of the residency—duration, facilities, stipend, and location—are not specified in the available information, the call is clear in its demand for a bio, CV, artist statement, and project proposal. These materials indicate that El Molino seeks artists who can articulate a rigorous, context-aware practice and who have a specific project in mind. For the discerning applicant, El Molino represents an opportunity to join a cohort of practitioners working at the intersection of art and environment. The absence of a fee status in the public record means artists should inquire directly about costs. The residency's global orientation and its embrace of multiple disciplines make it suited to those whose work is not easily contained within a single medium and who are invested in the poetics and politics of place.
