The Mural Art Residency in Khokana seeks to bridge the past and the present, tradition and modernity, through the transformative power of art. By exploring the question, “What can we learn from a place, and what can a place teach us?” this residency encourages participants to engage deeply with the town’s heritage, creating meaningful dialogue between the local community and the participants. Through this project, Khokana’s stories will be documented as an inspiration for future generations to foster more inquiries and a deeper connection to the places they inhabit and the knowledge these places hold.
