WASP Working Art Space and Production announces the opening of the cultural project CONNECT.CREATE.SHARE dedicated to artists prone to cultural interventions practices, performance, multidisciplinarity and artistic cooperation.
The project takes places between 2023-2024 and includes the following:

1. CONNECT interactive platform – dedicated to artistic interventions including creative residencies; 
2. CREATE interactive platform – programme focused on performance arts.
About this project: 
“Connect.Create.Share.” follows the development of a national and international mobility network made up of artists, organizations and cultural institutions from 5 cities: Sibiu, Bucharest, Timisoara, Iași and Chișinău. The project proposes the articulation of new strategies in order to facilitate the access and creation of contemporary art through utilising the existing infrastructure and processes of cooperation and coproduction.
Themes of the project: 
The thematics of the project aim towards areas such as the climate crisis, socio-political conflicts, art in systems of repression and isolation, anthropology, etc.
We support multidisciplinary approaches related to the scientific field and related domains that can stir curiosity and interest towards contemporary art.
Eligibility: 
Participation is open to all artists from Sibiu, Bucharest, Timisoara, Iasi and Chișinău.
