Introducing the members of Les Mòniques for the 2025-2026 season

We give a warm welcome to the 20 artists who will be part of the Santa Mònica's artistic residency programme during the 2025-2026 season. Throughout the season, Les Mòniques will work collectively in various guilds that work with the resources and content the centre makes available to them.

Based on these guilds and through a logic organised around experimental practices, Les Mòniques will focus their stay on researching and creating prototypes of artistic mediation devices in order to open up and bring the Santa Mònica's contents to diverse groups and audiences.

Les Mòniques were chosen through the call for grants published on 12 March, taking into account the critical potential and collective dimension of the proposals presented, as well as their suitability for developing experimental working methods and artistic mediation formats.

The selection committee, formed by director Enric Puig and researchers and curators Nancy Garín and Íngrid Blanco, wanted to ensure that the proposals submitted by the artists aligned with the centre's desire to generate mechanisms that question dominant narratives, in order to research and experiment with counter-hegemonic forms that challenge the relationship between the cultural institution and its target audience.
