Arcaica Association
We are an association committed to the development and production of cultural projects and artistic research. Our focus areas include sustainability and technology. Through the Koyne Program, we seek to explore the intersection of biomaterials and recycled technologies, aiming to give a range of tool for creative production.
Our three lines of work are:
1.- The development of an artistic research methodology as a tool for artists in residence.
2.- The creation of a library of more sustainable materials and work with these materials.
3.- Research in the use of digital and electronic tools.
