We-Che International Art Residency in Patagonia - Argentina

We-Che art Residency is an independent artist run project. A quiet workspace in an inspiring surrounding, conducive to constructive exchanges on professional and emotive approaches towards new experiences and aesthetic realities and help to focus on the importance of meaningful and multi-layered cultural exchanges through meditative nature observation and conscient artistic practices. It is also aimed to let place for a small, human-scale adventure. The We-Che artist residency welcomes emerging and established writers, creators, artists from all countries to spend time and space away from their usual environment to retreat and reflect, to create, and rest in front of an imposing landscape in a peaceful rural environment. In We-Che you wont feel any kind of pressure for you to achieve something, to produce, to concrete, unless you want it… Come here to escape the frenzy and decompress, rejuvenate gathering new inspiration alongside like-minded artists and writers and devote space and time to your creativity. Enjoy art life in the middle of mythic Patagonia a stunning, nature-filled place…

We prioritize practices that respect the Nature and the people who inhabit it. We encourage projects searching to connect to Patagonia as a natural historical and cultural environnement (fauna, flora, wild life, landscape, and History) and promoting the interaction and respectful relationships between Art and Nature. We welcome creators from all discipline if their project fits to We-Che, thats to say we also evaluate if our structure is able or not to give all necessary space to what they want to create. Thats why we will also pay attention during selection process, to mix artists in order they form a good « team » and manage to make an harmonious balanced blend that promote the better experience to each one.
