“Moving through Capillarity” implies a dynamic process, perhaps involving a transfer or movement of ideas or elements through a narrow and interconnected system, akin to how fluids move through capillaries in biology. For FACTT 22-24 it is indicative that the exploration extends to diverse scientific phenomena and abstract principles.
Moving through Capillarity implies a consortium of conceptual and methodological bridges between scientific concepts and the creative realm. Contemporary art often seeks not just inspiration from various disciplines but also ways to re-problematize concepts, and this FACTT is an exploration of how the concept of capillarity can serve as a metaphorical thread weaving through both scientific and artistic domains.
Cultivamos Cultura and Arte Institute in collaboration with our worldwide partners provide and actively promote conditions to foster the creative response of artists towards these new challenges. Together we develop a series of activities within FACTT Festival 20/21 which result from a complex network of social and environmental interactions. Together we plan remote, face-to-face, local and international public engagement activities, by bringing to the forefront the work of artists from all over the world. We plan to present artworks and creative outcomes in a hybrid space entangling the virtual and physical; a space that desires to break the limits of access to culture, to collaboration, to the experience of art.
