Given the theme “The museum as a virtual/material border interface”, whose objective is to explore the digitalization of the contemporary world, taking into account its impact on the arts, it was essential that the place where the residency would take place reflected the integration and connections made possible by networks. Therefore, Paulo and Sarah mixed characteristics of an office, a creative studio and a home, making it multifunctional and welcoming, perfect for stimulating the creative flow of the participants.
