What is MALACATE?
MALACATE was a multidisciplinary artistic intervention project created specifically for the São Domingos Mine (Mértola), between 2021 and 2023: a place with a remarkable mining past, as evidenced by the industrial buildings of impressive aesthetic value that still exist.
Based on a transnational cooperation between Companhia Cepa Torta with the Municipality of Mértola, Røros kommune (Norway) and Lise Wulff (Norway), the aim is to promote a new vision of Mina de S. Domingos through the action of artistic practice and work of, with and for the local community, creating a contemporary image of the place, not erasing its industrial past, but reoccupying the different spaces with new memories and meanings.
This site is a digital archive of the project and its multiple activities.
