HOW DOES A VILLAGE FEED ITSELF?
\nResearch and creative residency<\/p>\n

With Ana Rodr\u00edguez (Uruguay)
\nV\u00e1rzea de Calde (Calde, Viseu)
\nJuly 18th to August 18th, 2026<\/p>\n

An activity produced by Binaural Nodar, part of the Tramontana Network project, co-funded by the European Union’s Creative Europe program, with the support of the Calde Civil Parish Council and the Municipality of Viseu.<\/p>\n

To close the research and creative residency with the anthropologist and sound artist Ana Rodr\u00edguez, dedicated to the ways of eating of the past and of today in the village of V\u00e1rzea de Calde, a community dinner was held outside the premises of the V\u00e1rzea de Calde Association, at which the people who collaborated with the project shared examples of their family cuisine.<\/p>\n

“How does a village feed itself?” was conceived following other earlier Binaural Nodar projects that dealt, even if tangentially, with the theme of food: “Plantas Faladas” (2019), in “Ecos da Ida do Retorno” (2022) and, more recently, in “A Carqueja no Quotidiano de V\u00e1rzea de Calde” (2025).<\/p>\n

This time it was different: eating, cooking, and setting the table were the center of attention, and it was from there that we tried to understand how V\u00e1rzea de Calde remembers itself and gathers around food.<\/p>\n

“How Does a Village Feed Itself?” has the local partnerships of the Municipality of Viseu, the Calde Civil Parish Council, and the Association of Ukrainians in Viseu, and is part of the international project Tramontana Network, funded by the European Union’s Creative Europe Program \u2014 a framework that gives this work, carried out in V\u00e1rzea de Calde and with the Ukrainian community of Viseu, a dimension that goes well beyond the local scale, connecting it to a European network of cultural cooperation.<\/p>\n
