AIR program in Fablab Buinho (Portugal) 2023
\nDeadline: July 27th 2022<\/p>\n

Dates & location of event context: Buinho offers a unique working experience in the historic town of Messejana, Southern Portugal. Messejana is a place of delightful contrasts, between the past aristocratic houses with its hidden, patios, the small rural dwellings, and baroque white churches. All surrounded by endless plains and old cork trees that characterize the Alentejo region. It is located in the sunniest region of Europe, providing more than 3000 hours of sunshine per year, also famous for its gastronomy, and just 1 hour and a half from Lisbon and other major cities.<\/p>\n

The current open call is for the period January 2023 until December 2023.<\/p>\n

Living in a rural environment is an advantage, but Buinho offers more than just a safe place. We are in the historic town of Messejana, Southern Portugal. Besides the surrounding natural landscape and heritage, our fablab and studios are equipped with all the necessary tools and equipment\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s to enhance the possibilities of experimentation of our residents. Besides access to lasercut, 3D printing and other technologies, Buinho also provides free introductory courses and production assistance.
\nBuinho Fablab opened in 2016, and became a European reference as the only artistic residencies based on a Fablab, enabling the merging of Art, Technology and Digital Fabrication. Ever since we have received visual artists, performance artists, photographers, curators, writers, sculptors, designers, media artists, from all the different continents, confirming the eclectic nature of our program.
\nToday Buinho has five houses, offering private accommodation, shared and individual studios, a digital fabrication workshop, and exhibition spaces. Besides our own properties and equipment\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s, we also run together with the local municipality a Precious Plastic Workshop, where resident artists can work with metal, larger sculpture pieces or installations, or recycle plastic. Together with the local school and kindergarten, we provide support to a small network of three makerspaces dedicated to tech education from 3 to 12 years old, where artists can propose activities and workshops.<\/p>\n

Our residency program is suitable for artists from different disciplines and backgrounds, including Visual arts, Sculpture, Photography, Writing, Design, New Media, Curatorial, Performance, Research
\nOur staff provides weekly curatorial support to the residents, for advise, discussion and follow up of the residency project.
\nThe residency program provides production support, and access to the equipment\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s and spaces.
\nBuinho AIR program also provides free weekly tutorials and workshops about 3D printing, 3D modeling, CNC and laser cutting, robotics, and plastic recycling.
\nThe program also includes weekly contacts with the locals from Messejana where we explore traditional practices as goat cheese or bread making, or visits to traditional artisans workshops. Buinho also offers some special programs and workshops to our residents, as the Precious Plastic Workshop (for recycling plastic), or our special education branch called Buinho Education (digital empowerment of local children and seniors).
\nWe possess a wide list of equipment, from heavy-duty easels to workshop tools that we make available to our residents. We also offer unique working capabilities in terms of digital fabrication due to our fablab. A list of some of this digital fabrication equipment and audiovisuals can be found on our website – https:\/\/buinho.pt\/fablab\/<\/p>\n

entry fee \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Yes.<\/strong> We do not have public or private funding for the residencies, and besides the normal house bills and work consumables, we have a full-time person just for production support of the residencies. As such, we have to apply fees, but we do keep the fees to a minimum since we are a non-for-profit association based in a rural area.
\nIn Buinho we also try to differentiate the value of the residency fees according to the characteristics of the accommodation. Bedrooms have different dimensions, spaces, and one has a private bathroom. By differentiating the fees, we are establishing a fairer criterion between residents, and enabling those with fewer incomes to come to Buinho.
\nMonthly fees are the following:
\n1. S\u00c3\u00a3o Jo\u00c3\u00a3o larger bedroom with private bathroom – 850\u00e2\u201a\u00ac;
\n2. S\u00c3\u00a3o Jo\u00c3\u00a3o other two bedrooms – 750\u00e2\u201a\u00ac;
\n3. Joaquina\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s individual studio house – 900\u00e2\u201a\u00ac;<\/strong><\/p>\n
