The site features rich and diverse ecosystems \u2014 forest, plains, mountains, river, pond, and more \u2014 along with a heritage house. Through numerous encounters with local residents, Van Grimde Corps Secrets discovered that Malvina is much more than just a place: it is a fragment of collective memory, a territory inhabited by stories, traces, and emotions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is from this recognition that the idea for a creation and presentation center deeply rooted in its territory was born \u2014 a living space where the community can reclaim its history while opening itself to contemporary creation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>New grounds for transdisciplinary research, creation, and residencies<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Led by Van Grimde Corps Secrets, this unique center offers an exceptional setting for artists, researchers, thinkers, and audiences to collectively explore the connections between the body, the land, science, and contemporary creation.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In an environment where forests meet mountains, rivers, and fields, each project unfolds in an intimate relationship with the site and its ecosystems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serving as a space for residencies, research, transmission, and encounters, the center fosters exchanges across disciplines, generations, and cultures. It invites a sensitive reimagining of local heritage while inspiring new forms of expression in the performing arts, digital arts, ecology, and interdisciplinary thought.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Malvina, creation takes root, resonates, and is shared.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"><strong>Our Trails<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"><strong>Primal body \/ Future body<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">An outdoor immersive trail conceived by Isabelle Van Grimde, exploring our relationship to the body in the digital age.
