During his residency at MQ, Zeqiri continues researching on the project he started two years ago.
He wants to delve into the fascinating world of microorganisms and their presence in the foods we consume daily. He is excited about the prospect of immersing himself in a community of creatives and researchers and fostering an atmosphere of interdisciplinary collaborations. Zenqiris primary aim during the residency is to unravel the hidden dimensions of the microword within our meals. He intends to explore the symbiotic interactions, potential health implications, and artistic representations of these often overlooked organisms. By harnessing the artistic potential of his findings, he aspires to cultivate a novel approach to understanding and appreciating our daily nourishment. He wants to establish new connections within the realm of curation and gallery management. Furthermore, the artist hopes to foster collaborations with microbiology departments, engaging with doctors of microbiology who can lend their expertise to enhance the scientific way of his work.

As a result of this residency, Zeqiri anticipate laying the foundation for a transformative research endeavor. He aspires to develop cultivation techniques for microorganisms and contribute to the creation of a new artistic dialogue surrounding their role in our lives. His time in the studio will be dedicated to the creation of visually stunning and intellectually stimulating pieces that communicate the intricate interplay between science, art, and the culinary (consuming) experience. In essence, this residency in Vienna represents an unparalleled opportunity for the artist to push the boundaries of his artistic and scientific exploration. By synthesizing his passion for microorganisms, food, and art, he aims to initiate a dialogue that tries to comunicate in multidiciplinary ways.
