Salve Ana! Sorry for not commenting earlier, but this is a super nice project and also great name! I could not apply unfortunately, with many things going on. But I'd be very much interested in following up this project and even collaborating with whomever is selected in this program! :) Abraço, |

Dear Paulo,
Hello, and thank you so much for getting in touch!
I wanted to drop you a line to say that we ended up postponing the
application due to internal deadlines that we were not able to meet.
However, we are in the process of organising a zoom meeting with all
interested in developing the project, to discuss how to move forward. I
will include you in the email so that we have an opportunity to meet and
hear more about you.
Very best,
Ana Margarida

Lots of portuguese-speaking researchers around this community :D
Abraço,
Paulo

This is an informal shout-out to the Quantum Land Art community. I am a researcher based in Portugal currently developing a transdisciplinary research bid and I am exploring the possibility of bringing researcher-artists into the project team. If you work at the interface between the arts and quantum physics, and are drawn to questions about non-linear time and space, I would love to hear from you.
About the project:
EXU explores the resonances between quantum principles — superposition, retrocausality, entanglement, non-locality — and indigenous and Afro-diasporic epistemologies, ontologies and philosophies of time and space. The project brings these frameworks into dialogue for the first time in a systematic way, with the aim of generating new conceptual tools for decolonial and post-colonial thought. It is a genuinely transdisciplinary project, and the arts are central to its methodology.
The bid:
EXU is being submitted as an Exploratory Research Project (PEX) to the Portuguese Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT). PEX grants are small and exploratory (max. 18 months, max. €60,000), designed either for early-career researchers with original ideas or for more experienced researchers proposing concepts with a high degree of novelty and disruptive potential. The project will run from January 2027 to July 2028 and is based at a research institution in Portugal.
More information on the funding scheme here: https://www.fct.pt/en/concursos/concurso-de-projetos-i-d-em-todos-os-dominios-cientificos-2025/
Who we are looking for:
We are particularly interested in hearing from researcher-artists — including PhD students and early-career researchers — who engage creatively and critically with the overlap between quantum physics and indigenous or Afro-diasporic concepts of time and space. This is not a competitive call and there are no formal eligibility criteria: we simply want to find out who is out there and whether there is appetite for this kind of collaboration.
Please note that given the small scale of the grant, we are not in a position to offer fees, but project funds would cover travel, accommodation and per diem expenses for project meetings and the closing symposium.
Deadline to express interest: 3 March 2026
If this resonates with your practice or research, please get in touch (admartins@letras.up.pt)
Thanks!
Ana Martins
