| Site Specific | Sculpture|
Planta alta is located on a third level by stairs. It is a very very bright industrial type shed. In the space we share ateliers with 8 artists and each atelier has approximately between 25 and 30 square meters. Our space is semi-open, each workshop has 3 walls. In our atelier we work together painters and sculptors. The atelier available to share with the resident is exclusively Lucia's. The common areas we have are for resting and eating, we do not have tools for common use. Planta Alta is usually very quiet, each artist works at different times and days so sometimes we coincide and sometimes we don't. Various processes take place in the atelier: you can work with papier-mâché, plaster, cement, clay, textiles, some things in carpentry. The space lends itself to large-scale works (as long as they fit in the forklift!) We have a forklift to lift things.
The studio is run by Lucia Reissig
