EIRA Project

The EIRA project aims to promote the green transition by bringing together the cultural and creative sectors in pursuit of this goal. Structured into three phases – HARVEST, EXHIBITION AND TRANSFORMATION, and NEW BEGINNING – the project involves the community and partner organisations in collecting sustainable practices to inspire the creation of new products through the arts. Its defined priorities reinforce identity, territorial cohesion, innovation, and sustainability, empowering young people to face the challenges of the green economy.

Objectives

Preserving Heritage, Empowering Communities

To promote and value intangible cultural expressions, ensuring their preservation, dissemination, and continuous development while adapting them to contemporary contexts.

To foster ethnic and cultural diversity, promote social inclusion and gender equality, strengthen citizenship, and improve the quality of life of local populations.

Phases

The project unfolds over two years, structured in three phases and involving the active participation of the entire team and established partnerships.

Phase I – Harvest
Participatory documentation of traditions — origins and evolution — through conversations and research, creating multimedia records (agricultural materials/instruments, sustainable practices, dances, lyrics, soundscapes) and mapping the stages of the harvest.
Phase II – Exhibition and Transformation
Public presentation of the 'harvest' (videos, sounds, objects, photographs, testimonies) through immersive activities (co-design, workshops, dramatizations, dances, performances, concerts), reactivating connections to the past and generating new outputs, notably the EIRA Toolkit, which frames the EIRA Installation and EIRA Workshops.
Phase III – New Beginning

Creation of the EIRA Artistic Residencies, where the contents of the EIRA Exhibition (project documentation) and the EIRA Performance are developed and prepared, consolidating the creative and community journey that has begun.

Activities

Phase I — Harvest

Participatory documentation of local traditions and practices through conversations, observation, and multimedia records, creating a solid documentary base of knowledge and memories.

Phase II — Co-creation and Exploration

Return of the 'harvest' to the community, where the materials are explored through contemporary dance and music languages; resulting in the EIRA Toolkit, which guides the EIRA Installation and EIRA Workshops.

Phase III — Residencies, Exhibition and Performance

Creative consolidation through the EIRA Artistic Residencies, culminating in the EIRA Exhibition and EIRA Performances, which renew the relationship between community, culture, and territory, valuing sustainable practices and balanced management of natural resources.
