Rural culture is not a blank space outside the art world. It has its own people, memories, landscapes, practical knowledge, social rooms, and reasons to keep making work.
Sketchy Shona’s rural record includes the Goethe-Institut x Rural Hackers residency in Anceu, Galicia, where a mural, found-door installation, portrait of Rogelio and community process became part of one place-led project.
Place can change the work
Projects made outside the usual cultural centres can hold a different pace and set of relationships. Follow the project archive and studio journal for the conditions around the work.
