Artistic Cloud Centre

The Artistic Cloud Centre is an international, decentralised cultural platform that develops artistic, educational and intercultural cooperation projects across Europe and Brazil.
​
Its core mission is to connect artists, institutions and communities through collaborative artistic processes that combine creation, education and cultural exchange in sustainable transnational formats.
​
At the heart of all work lies a simple principle:
art as a shared space of encounter, transformation and collective knowledge.
Rather than operating as a fixed institution, Momentos World functions as a living cultural network — a cloud-based artistic structure where collaboration emerges across borders, disciplines and contexts.
​
CONCEPT
Momentos World brings together artists from different cultural, linguistic and artistic backgrounds to develop a multidisciplinary platform for contemporary creation.
​
This platform is rooted in reciprocity, collectivity and artistic co-creation, where projects are not produced in isolation, but emerge through horizontal and synergistic collaboration.
​
Through these shared processes, Momentos World creates spaces of artistic training, research and exchange in which artistic languages meet, transform and expand.
​
These encounters generate not only artistic works, but also transformative educational experiences for all participants.
​
ORIGINS – VISION & EVOLUTION
Momentos World originated in 2011 in Vienna as a dance-theatre project conceived by choreographer Vinicius.
​
From the beginning, the vision was clear: to connect people through the transformative power of art.

What started as a performative project gradually evolved into a transnational cultural structure, expanding across Austria, Brazil and Germany, with active hubs in Vienna, Innsbruck, Rio de Janeiro, Curitiba, Brasília, São Paulo and Münster.
Today, Momentos World operates as a multi-city cultural platform with long-term artistic and educational collaborations across three countries and seven cities.
​
TODAY – THE ARTISTIC CLOUD CENTRE
Today, Momentos World is defined as an *Artistic Cloud Centre *— a contemporary cultural structure that exists beyond a single physical institution.
It operates through a network of coordinators, artists and partner institutions who develop projects collaboratively from different locations around the world.
This structure allows Momentos World to function as a distributed cultural ecosystem, where artistic creation, research and education are developed both locally and internationally.
​
ARTISTIC & EDUCATIONAL FIELDS
Momentos World is structured into eight interconnected artistic and educational fields:
Momentos Dance Theatre (Performance & Creation)
Momentos Academics (Education & Research)
Momentos Books (Publications & Writing)
Momentos Cinema (Film & Documentary)
Momentos Conectarte (Digital Dialogues & Live Formats)
Momentos Media (Communication & Documentation)
Momentos Music (Sound & Composition)
Momentos Photography (Visual Arts & Documentation)
Each field operates independently while also contributing to interdisciplinary projects across the platform.
​
PARTNERSHIPS & COLLABORATION
Momentos World works in close collaboration with cultural institutions, universities, academies and artistic centres across Europe and Brazil, as well as with the Austrian, Brazilian and German Embassies.
​
We understand education and art as interconnected fields. For this reason, all our projects integrate a pedagogical dimension, offering students, artists and collaborators opportunities for artistic learning, professional practice and intercultural experience.
​
Our partners engage with us through both on-site and remote collaborations, contributing to artistic creation, research, production and cultural exchange.
​
STRUCTURE & SUSTAINABILITY
Momentos World is sustained by a collective of more than 30 coordinating artists working across three countries.
​
This decentralised structure is based on voluntary artistic collaboration and shared responsibility for the development of projects and infrastructure.
​
At the same time, the realisation of projects depends on partnerships and support from cultural institutions, sponsors, foundations, embassies and public funding bodies.
​
We understand this model as a form of shared cultural responsibility, where artistic production becomes possible through collective belief, institutional cooperation and sustainable support structures.
