About the associationSilbos is a non-profit cultural association based in Spain, working between Barcelona and a remote piece of land in Teruel, Aragon. Its current main project springs from this rural site, where an old stone masia and surrounding forest are slowly being transformed into an off‑grid refuge and multi-purpose studio, exploring the relationship between wild landscape and contemporary culture through long-term artistic and research practices.
The association’s interest fields span sound art and sound studies, audiovisual work, artistic and practice-based research, ecology, mystical practices and literatures, underground and collective art, and other non‑institutional forms of making and thinking.
Around the project in Teruel, Silbos develops collaborations that range from DIY and traditional construction and land care (permaculture, rewilding, cultivation) to programs with local communities. Alongside this project, Silbos also initiates and joins activities, collaborations, and research processes at national and international levels: performances, listening sessions, workshops, publications, and collective experiments that extend the questions raised by the land into other contexts. Together, these strands form an evolving platform for working with sound, attention, and ecology across places and scales.
