The Cortiçada Exhibit is showcased as a mediation of contemporaneous artistic creation structured into the manifesto for landscape change of Pinhal Interior, the Cortiçada Art Fest Project.

It’s in this curatorial framework that the collective challenges 7 artists to make a digital presentation of an artwork focused on a reflexion of the landscape of the Portuguese hinterland and its transformation. The museum side, the digital exhibition and the creation itself all focus on the context of digital transformation – from the creative process to its mediation.

The Cortiçada Exhibit will be the manifesto for landscape change from the point of view – experiences, reflexion – of each invited artist. Artists who know, experience and reflect on, in various ways, this territory, its landscapes and peoples, depopulation and abandonment, bushfires, memories and desires of those who live here.
