Cuban Visual Artist Looking for Residency

Hello! I am a Cuban visual artist looking for a residency in order to complete work that I am unable to due to lack of materials in Cuba. I work on many mediums that include, x-ray photography, paint on canvas, wood work, metal work, clay work and many others. Finishing a few of my pieces would help me publish and network in order to make a living.

Propositions artistiques en échange de la résidence (oeuvres, cours, ateliers, dîner, concert...) : I am willing to offer an original piece of art in exchange for the residency,
Description environment are you looking for ( nature, urban, other…) : I would prefer an urban environment where materials would be more accessible and transportation less of an issue.
Describe your projects for a residence : My plan would be to start and complete an installation piece that relays the issue of building collapses so common in my city. Because of lack of building material in Cuba, building stability is a dangerous thing and Cubans are very well acquainted to the danger of heavy rains as this is when homes tend to collapse bringing with them the danger of death on every street.

Description of the type of workspace needed (office, studio, rehearsal space…) : a studio or home with work space would be ideal

    Artiste peintre, l’eau fait partie intégrante de ma pratique. Ayant suivi un enseignement d’aquarelle avec un maître chinois à New York , l’eau fascine les formes de mes paysages , jusqu’à devenir le paysage . Je peins avec les goutes de pluie , avec les vagues de la mer , un homage à la vie , à la beauté de la nature . Je cherche donc des résidences proche en bord de mer car je réalise un projet au contact des vagues de différents endroits . Mon travail est visible sur mon site louiselaffaille.com j’offre une peinture en échange du temps passé chez vous

    Salt in eyelashes is a photography and video project about insular teenagers identity and development in Greece. Where bodies reveal and affirm themselves and how they bind to each other in an open space by the sea. It goes along with my other photography projects, mainly “The Lobster Complex” in which I immersed myself in Brussels teenagers sphere. Thereafter, my “Bank” series portraited the skate culture in Luxembourg. More recently, in Formentera, I produced a series of photographs revealing my personal bond with the isle. Since my childhood, I traveled through Greece and its islands, under my parents impluse, who transmitted a piece of insularity through this inimate experience. The islands have sharpened my vision, my education, my way of approaching things and the livings. For me, they are like a second home, a second skin. Today, with Salt in eyelashes, I would like to pursue my teenager world quest with young people who grew up on those Greek islands and tell more about those islands through their bodies, their look and their fragility. My goal is to highlight the voices, the feelings, the stories of those people living or who have lived on an island. Through their testimony, I intend to dig, to feed and exchange knowledge around the subject of adolescence. The final result will be presented as a photography series and research notebooks but also as a video documentary and a paper edition.

    Bonjour, je me présente Karine, je suis de Montréal, du Québec, province francophone au Canada. Je suis artiste multidisciplinaire. Je suis en quête d'un endroit à l'international où travailler sur une série de peintures et dessins. J'aime beaucoup marcher pendant de longues heures, cueillir des fleurs et en faire des bouquets/ arrangements créatifs. Cela pourrait peut-être intéresser les hôtes qui offre un gîte aux touristes, ou amateurs de fleurs? : )
