One of the major areas of interest in his art practice concerns the investigation of museum environments. He is extremely fascinated by museums: articulated and complex environments, where peculiar relationships manifest between the collections and visitors, between the environment and the audience. From a decolonial perspective, museums are sometimes problematic and unresolved places, where intertwined controversies are related to the origin of artefacts, the ways in which objects are exhibited, the narratives of collections, etc. Thanks to CDCD, Carlos will be able to reflect in depth and in a prolonged way on these themes, with the opportunity to further develop his line of research on museums, of sharing ideas and thoughts with the institutions and other artists involved in the initiative, of presenting the outcomes of this journey.
The digital reflection titled Scales, created by Claudio Beorchia, resonates with and responds to the experiences gained during his one-month residency at Casa Arabe, Spain. It not only reflects on the residency itself but also extends into the post-production phase, exploring the ongoing processes and transformations that follow the residency experience.
