At the opening of the WIP Festival, artist Miguel Teodoro presented an early insight into his ongoing STUDIOTOPIA residency project Preparing for Drought: Addressing Water Scarcity and Desertification in Cyprus.

Through a short video interview below, you can get to know more insight into the project that investigates how drought, soil degradation, and shifting climate patterns shape both the landscape and daily life on the island. Working closely with scientists such as George Zittis, local communities, and regenerative agriculture practitioners, Teodoro gathers field samples, documents environmental traces, and translates these observations into visual and material experiments.
