The creative European-funded platform has announced its roster of artists for the coming year.
For 2022, the SHAPE+ cohort includes Catalan musician Marina Herlop, electronic producer NZIRIA, Lisbon-based duo 7777 の天使 and audiovisual artist Wojciech Rusin.
Other artists featured on this year’s roster are experimental musician Ale Hop, Athens-based artist and vocalist Evita Manji, multi-disciplinary creative Bella Báguena and ABADIR – who also forms one half of 0NB. See the full list of artists here.
The SHAPE+ project builds on the platform’s previous iterations with a focus this year on residencies and greener forms of travel where possible. SHAPE+ is comprised of 13 festivals in Europe, including CTM Festival, Unsound and Terraforma Festival, and focuses on supporting innovative music and audiovisual arts.
In addition to the initial 39 SHAPE+ 2022 artists, there will be a second wave of names added to the roster. These will be local artists involved in the residencies throughout the coming year.
