Amarre, in French, means mooring line: rope, cable or chain by which a boat is attached to the shore or to an anchor. AMARRE aims to connect forcibly displaced artists (or artists in exile) to their host communities. It is a residency programme that provides a safe working space for the selected artists to develop their projects and share them with the local audience, as well as connect them to the professional networks in their environments. Each local partner hosts and accompanies the selected artists in exile in the respective countries with the perspective of supporting a culture of openness, free expression and living together.

Programme designed and directed by Collectif Kahraba / Hammana Artist House

In partnership with L’Atelier des Artistes en Exil (France), A Corner in the World (Turkey), Moussem (Belgium)

Supported by the French Ministry of Europe & Foreign Affairs
