Luz Dary Cáceres Saavedra said she is the first Colombian and the second Latin American participant to win a specific artistic residency, according to an interview published September 13.[^1]

Cáceres Saavedra, a Colombian artist, made the statement in an interview with Boyacá 7 Días, though the residency's name and location were not disclosed in the report.[^1] She did not specify the prize value or the duration of the program.
