Extramural Residence El Boga

ExpressArt 


As part of her residency project, she will continue to share ways of expression and personal and community healing that allow people to channel emotions, elaborate memory, and tell their own stories from a new and better understanding. This process allows us to open the way to human beings who are more connected to themselves and to a better relationship with their environment, with others, with their sociocultural reality and with nature and its resources. Highlighting the importance of artistic expressions and comprehensive health as multidimensional beings and working together as social beings.


Likewise, Salma is interested in searching for economic, human and artistic resources in the region that can lead to the recording of part of a film in Mompox and its surroundings, as an active participation of the territory in a collective creation of perennial material that can represent and motivate to continue investigating other ways of being and relating.
