In Ex(ile) Lab
In Ex(ile) Lab aims to support artists in exile, who have recently relocated and are looking to build a careerin Cyprus, France, Italy and Portugal, by providing opportunities to create a performance, build a professional network, be artistically advised by established artists based in Europe and reach new audiences within the European space.
During two years, In Ex(ile) Lab will test tailed transdisciplinary paths in which the artists can grow as individuals and artists, in their host societies and in Europe. By doing so, the project will provide a framework for cultural organisations to rethink their practices and adapt their tools to the needs of artists in exile.
As an associated expert, la briqueterie hosted two artists in residency in October 2023, Irkalla, and Eisa Badour, and has associated Nadia Beugré as one of the project mentors.
