R.A.R.O. Buenos Aires (RARO)
Buenos Aires, Argentina

A great and very good challenge was that they make you change your physical location during the residency, so changing spaces really opens up your creativity. At the same time, the people you work with also change, which also helps a lot to get out of your comfort zone. Every day there were activities at different galleries, museums, and exhibition places, both institutional and independent, which greatly enrich your creative process and help you better understand the circuit of a city that is not the one you live in. The curator's follow-up was very good and very attentive to your needs as an artist (the same with the entire management and exhibition setup team). I recommend to the next residents to look carefully at where in the city their workshops are located so that they stay in a place that suits them and do not waste so much time on mobilization. - Un gran desafío y muy bueno fue que te hacen cambiarte de lugar físico durante la residencia, entonces al cambiar de espacio se te abre un monton la creatividad. Al mismo tiempo, tambien cambian las personas con las que trabajas lo que tambien ayuda mucho a salir de tu lugar comodo. Todos los días habían actividades a distintas galerias, museos y lugares de exposición tanto institucionales como independientes que te enriquecen mucho para tu proceso creativo y conocer mejor el circuito de una ciudad que no es en la que tu vives. El seguimiento de la curadora fue muy bueno y muy atento a tus necesidades como artista (lo mismo con todo el equipo directivo y montajista de la exposición) Recomiendo a los proximos residentes que vean bien en que lugares de la ciudad quedan sus talleres para que alojen en un lugar que les convenga y no pierdan tanto tiempo En movilización

As I was the only student participating in the residency, I first felt intimidated. But I was welcomed with open arms, everyone was very approachable and kind. In a Natural way I stepped up to the challenge and with that I made a crucial step in my career regarding confidence and self trust. I am still working with the material I produced during the residency, it was a great moment to reflect and to make a lot! Buenos Aires for me is a wonderful city, with great people, food and lots of artistic spaces you will discover with the residency. It is also a really big and messy city which comes with its challenges. If you like adventures and community you are definitely in the right place!
Was super interesting the opportunity to spent one week with different artists and ateliers. That was very nice for me. Love the city of Buenos Aires.
