Through this partnership MATE and Delfina Foundation aimed to encourage creative exchange between Peru and the UK and promote Peruvian artists internationally.

MATE is a non-profit institution established to contribute to Peru through the cultivation and promotion of culture and heritage. Founded in 2012 by photographer Mario Testino, MATE is a manifestation of Testino’s pride for his native country and a desire to give back through culture.

Between 2014 and 2017 an artist was nominated for Delfina Foundation’s residency programme.
