FOUR (PLUS) ELEMENTS - revised /OPEN CALL FOR RESIDENCY IN TINOS ISLAND
The cycle of natural elements (over time) in six select landscapes of 
the island of Tinos.

KINONO Tinos Art Gathering introduces the thematic proposal "FOUR (PLUS 
ONE) ELEMENTS”, borrowing the four natural elements (earth, water, air, 
fire) and distinguishing their cooperation in the creation, over time, 
of the peculiar natural and man-made environment of the island of Tinos. 
By creating different conditions of studying space, which monitor the 
cycle-chain of transformation from one natural element to another, 
KINONO imagines the partnership of a combination of two elements, under 
the influence of time, in each one of the hand-picked locations, as follows:
Fire-Water/Koumelas Quarries, Water-Earth/Plain of Komi, 
Earth-Fire/Ismael village, Fire-Air/Papargyras Lighthouse, 
Air-Earth/Kakia Skala,  Air-Water/Livada Beach

This 23-day interdisciplinary, gathering of creators and thinkers and 
the dialogue between them will culminate in three days of collective 
presentations (October 15-18), per location, of a series of symposia, 
on-site research projects and workshops, performing arts, art exhibitions.

We invite those interested to choose one element, along with one of the 
three respective locations, stating in their application their desired 
method of participation in the residency (full duration / limited 
(guest) duration or online)

A few words about Kinono
Kinono is an independent non-profit cultural organization, that is based 
in Tinos island, Greece since 2016 and gathers productions of 
interdisciplinary practices in the island’s different geographies, with 
contemporary artistic creation as a starting point.
Wishing to propagate a dialectical approach to issues of locality, 
tradition, environment and modern culture, Kinono creates the conditions 
for in-situ work, driven by the natural and cultural landscape of Tinos.
