October 2024
PROSPER is short for ”Prototypes for Sustainable Residencies in the Peripheries”. During my time on Evia, I am researching the impact of the increasing amount of wildfires on the local communities, human as well as non-human, translated into a land art piece made with locally sourced clay. The residency is co-funded by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union
