A PLACE TO MAKE, THINK, AND INHABIT
DISCOVER AN INSPIRING RESIDENCE IN THE CITY OF THE ALHAMBRA, ON THE FOOT OF SIERRA NEVADA











ABOUT
Sitio Projects is a visual arts residency in Granada dedicated to supporting artists through periods of research and production. Over one to three months, each resident receives accommodation, a studio, and time —the scarcest material of all— to develop their practice in dialogue with the city, its light, and its layered history.
Three pillars:
Â
Time:Â A slow rhythm to think, read, wander and get things wrong. The residency is built around process, not output.
Studio: A dedicated workspace in central Granada, designed for visual artits: natural light, walls to hang work, and the tranquility of a private studio in a shared space.
City: Granada as a working context: archives, libraries, museums, craft workshops and a welcoming local art scene.

Manifesto
We believe art needs places. Not just square metres, but sites with their own temperature, history, and a window worth looking through. Sitio exists to offer contemporary artists somewhere to pause: a residency in Granada where the work is made slowly, held by a city that has, for centuries, been a crossroads of languages, materials and ways of seeing.
We don't ask for a finished project. We ask for curiosity.
What We Are
Sitio is an independent program founded by Fran Pérez Rus, Paulina Silva y Pablo Iáñez in 2026. We host a small number of residents each year so we can take care of every stay. We collaborate with local artspaces and institutions — art centres, university, galleries— to connect each artist's practice with the cultural fabric of the city.

Granada is a small city with large cultural density. From the apartment or the studio you can walk to the AlbaicÃn, the Realejo, and the Alhambra. Fifteen minutes and the landscape changes: cobbled streets, squares with orange trees, courtyards, views of Sierra Nevada.
For a residency, that means three practical things:
Human scale: Everything is close. You can buy paper, visit an archive and go to a concert in the same afternoon.
Layered history: Nasrid, Christian, modern, contemporary: layers that coexist and that, sooner or later, surface in the work made here.
Light: The famous Granada light is real. It's lower in winter, harder in summer, and on its own justifies a studio with large windows.
SPACES
Sitio occupies an old renovated workshop in central Granada. The residents' apartment and the studio are in separate spaces: you can close the studio door and go home walking, or work late without disturbing anyone.
Practical details:
Facilities:
The residents' apartment is located a 20-minute walk from the studio. It is not necessary to take public transport and they are also pedestrian streets.

PROGRAMME
Sitio Projects residency programme runs throughout the year in stays of one to three months. It's open to visual artists —painting, sculpture, installation, photography, drawing, video, hybrid practices— at any stage of their career. There is no single format: we adapt the length and rhythm to each resident's project.
WHAT THE RESIDENCY OFFER
Private accommodation in a residents-only apartment in central Granada.
Private studio equipped for visual arts (natural light, work tables, walls to hang, storage).
Open studio to show your work at the end of the stay, with public outreach.
Logistical support: introductions to workshops, suppliers, institutions and the local art community.
A huge community of artist and friends of the project.
FEES
Monthly fee: € 1500 covers accommodation, studio (with basic services) and open studio.
