Punk Epistemologies, a free sponsored virtual public session

Type: Residencies, Workshops, Exchanges [View all]
Posted by: Arquetopia
Deadline: Fri, May 29th, 2026

Arquetopia announces Punk Epistemologies, a free sponsored virtual public session taking place on June 5, 2026. Conceived as an open house into the conceptual and ethical frameworks informing Arquetopia’s transnational residency programs, the session responds to a global moment marked by war, forced displacement, censorship, extraction, and the normalization of violence.

At a time when artistic practice is increasingly confronted with urgent political, social, and ethical realities, Punk Epistemologies proposes creative resistance as a critical position rather than passive observation. The session will examine how methodology, representation, responsibility, and artistic production operate within contemporary global conditions, questioning the possibility of neutrality in moments of ongoing violence and instability.

Rather than functioning as a workshop or instructional seminar, Punk Epistemologies is structured as a threshold encounter into the critical methodologies developed through Arquetopia’s programs in Puebla, Oaxaca, Cusco, and cyberspace. The session will address the relationship between artistic practice, ethics, friction, accountability, and the role of artists within increasingly polarized and extractive systems.

The free sponsored public session is intended exclusively for artists who have never previously participated in an Arquetopia residency program, offering new participants an opportunity to engage Arquetopia’s methodological approaches and critical frameworks for the first time.

Punk Epistemologies will take place virtually on June 5, 2026, and will have a duration of 60 minutes. Participation is free of cost and offered on a first come, first served basis. Due to limited capacity, advance registration is required.

Applicants must submit:

Full name

Country of residence

Brief description of artistic practice

Short statement explaining their interest in Punk Epistemologies

Registration will remain open from May 21–29, 2026.

Participants selected on a first come, first served basis will receive access information by email.
