Artists in Residencia
About The Programme
Art in Deià is everywhere. Through the ages, artists, musicians and writers have retreated into the picturesque village to be inspired by the Tramuntana Mountains, the sublime sea views and the luminous Mediterranean light. Today, La Residencia welcomes emerging artists aspiring to complete a fruitful residence — taking the magic and inspiration of this island and transferring it to fellow creatives and guests who pass through. Discover Artists In Residencia, one of our unique creative programmes.
Artists in Residencia 2024
Hashel Al Lamki
Born in 1986 in Al Ain, the Emirati painter and multi-disciplinary artist Hashel Al Lamki unpacks the relationship between humankind and their habitat, the wild and constructed. As a proponent of sustainability, he aims to reduce carbon footprint through his works, which have garnered recognition from prestigious collections including the Guggenheim.
Guadalupe Salgado
Guadalupe Salgado was born in Mexico City in 1991. She graduated from the Benito Juárez Autonomous University of Oaxaca with a specialty in painting and her work has been exhibited in Mexico, New York, France, Switzerland, Quito and Italy. Her works generate a falsely candid narration of the human condition in the face of the collapse of their own cultures and consumption.
Qin Han
Qin Han was born in China in 1987 and lives and works in Paris. Qin seamlessly blends various visual languages to create surreal bodily compositions within a vibrant spiritual realm, earning top honors in both the Thaddaeus Ropac Award and the Jean-François & Marie-Laure de Clemont-Tonnerre Foundation Award.
