AndeArte Residency
Fresh Waters, Bold Visions
The AndeArte Residency takes place in the Colombian Andes town of Subachoque, a region rich in natural beauty and cultural heritage.
The name "Subachoque," from the Muisca language, means “place of fresh waters” or “cold river,” reflecting the pristine environment that fosters creativity and self-reflection.​ Drawing inspiration from the concept of “fresh water,” this residency encourages interdisciplinary collaboration among artists and professionals from diverse fields.
