fostering grounds for creative freedom

‘Bajo el Olivo’ is an experimental residency space dedicated to artists who are looking for a private space to think, write and create during these exceptional times we are living on this planet. This artistic retreat is designed for artists who require a thinking space in nature and seeks participants that are seriously thinking about an ecology of care, empathy and community building while the world is earnestly searching for social political and economic change with a posthuman approach to social engagement, social and spatial practices and a forward thinking into the future with an affirmative ethical stance.

We are now accepting applications to our residency program. Please go to the website for further application criteria guidelines. All guest applicants upon acceptance must show proof of their COVID-19 vaccination certificate. We look forward to welcoming you here in the beautiful countryside of Malaga, Andalucia, Spain.

Please note we are closed from December 15th, 2021 to January 10th, 2022.
