Are everyday activities part of heritage? How is cultural heritage relevant in today's context? These questions formed the basis of a month-long residency and incubation programme involving an artist and 26 writers in Sumedang, West Java.

The participants conducted observation and research in 26 sub-districts, exploring various tangible and intangible cultural assets, including oral traditions, customs, arts, languages and folk games, which became the main focus of the research. These efforts not only document cultural heritage, but also open up space for research and dissemination for future generations.

As a result of this programme, an anthology book will be produced containing feature stories on the findings from the 26 sub-districts, as well as presentations of works by artists who responded to the findings during the residency. Through this programme, it is hoped that the preservation of local culture will continue to be relevant and inspiring.
