Moving Image Laboratory is the creative residency programme of FUSO INSULAR, held on the island of São Miguel, Azores, since 2020.
Aimed at the Azorean community interested in the moving image arts, it seeks to encourage the creation of artistic works in video.
Each year, up to eight participants are selected for a three-month residency to develop new works, with practical guidance from visual artist André Laranjinha and theoretical mentorship from invited artists.

The Laboratory has welcomed names such as Daniel Blaufuks, Susana de Sousa Dias, Yuri Firmeza, Catarina Mourão, and Cláudia Varejão, who have accompanied the development of the works, later presented in the annual editions of FUSO Insular – Azores Video Art Showcase.

From 2020 to 2025, the Moving Image Laboratory has produced 45 video works, forming an important representation of video art in the Autonomous Region of the Azores.
