M0nster.L4b (ES) 2025-2026
M0nster.L4b is an affective meeting of knowledge and practices that aims to expand the politics of the performative and the image to give new possibilities of action to the discipline of drag cross-dressing. The two artists, Lu Chieregati and Feña Celedón, are interested in crossing dissident experiences with ecology, migration, decoloniality and transgenderism. They link choreographic studies to the artistic phenomenon of drag, transvestite and its hybrid identities. They are researching queer methodologies and ways to expand drag and choreographic practice through the creation of artistic works and ongoing research. The collective has existed for two years and has been able to establish links and relationships with contexts beyond Barcelona, such as Portugal, Brazil and Chile.

Taken residency at
Nau Ivanow
Nau Ivanow is a space of welcome, accompaniment, research and innovation; a haven where companies will find the warmth needed to work unhurriedly and in good conditions. Residencies are the main focus of what we do. Our aim is to provide decent working conditions, always accompanying the artists and providing them with the resources they need. Nau Ivanow’s projects are underpinned by three major working axes: creation, accompaniment and work with the territory. And all of them with one common denominator: internationalization, which permeates each and every one of our projects.
HELLERAU – European Center for the Arts
HELLERAU acts as an interdisciplinary and international centre for dance, performance, music, theatre and media arts. It offers spaces for productions, festivals, concerts performances, exhibitions and discourse, cooperates with various regional cultural partners and is firmly connected internationally. An important part of HELLERAU is a residency program, which offers opportunities for artistic research, networks, production and encounters throughout the whole year.
UP
The purpose of UP is to develop and upskill the independent performing arts throughout Denmark. We define the free and independent performing arts as individuals, collectives and companies who work professionally with performance and primarily for and with independent performance groups, project supported companies, and lesser established theatres. Often without permanent access to a stage or a venue.
