Armazém Pedreira - In Residence - Ateliers Municipais e Residências Artísticas

about

Pedreira is a collective and artistic platform that has stone sedimentation as a line of practice and claims a deceleration of processes – slow as the formation of stone, giving calm and time necessary to stimulate creative fruition. Pedreira’s artistic methodologies are built in a collaborative dynamic – through healing, listening, experiment, transfeminism, leisure, empowerment, destruction of binary certainties, mutual help, crafts, ancestral practices, radical sharing and the practice of failure as a tool to build utopian and unconventional aesthetics/narratives.
Pedreira platform is responsible for the management of the Warehouse, where the residencies take place.
