Your Residency

Bio

Tell us a little about yourself. This can be as personal or professional as you like - you may include your artist bio. Where are you from? What are you into? Have you been on residencies before? Do you have a favorite artist / animal / color/ philosopher? How do your friends describe you? Proudest professional achievements? University experience?

Artist Statement

Please describe what the theme means to you. What ideas does it spark? What draws you to this residency? How does it fit into your work?

Additional Support

Please describe any additional support you would like from us during your residency. Do you need specific materials? Connections with local artists or scholars? Will you want to use the woodshop?

Your Portfolio

Please provide up to 5 examples of recent work. These can be images, writing samples, or links to video work. Please be respectful of our storage space and time – images should be no larger than 2mb, writing samples no longer than (approximately) 5,000 words. For audio or video files: send us a working link. If the link is password protected, make sure to include the password for us. Please clearly label the files you send, naming them like this: “First name- Last name-number”. (As in: Yiorgos-Lanthimos-01)

Living with Others

We want to make sure that every resident feels supported and safe during their residency, so it’s useful to know a little about your background and experience.

Have you ever lived with people other than your family?

If yes, can you describe a difficult situation you’ve experienced while living with other people, and how you dealt with it?

How would you describe yourself in one sentence?

Do you prefer to be social most of the time? Do you like to spend time alone? Or some mixture of the two?

There is no wrong answer here, we strive to provide a space where residents can maintain a solitary focus on their work whilst also engaging with a vibrant creative community.

Funding

Are you planning to apply for funding to support you for this residency?

If yes, can you name the organisations you are applying to? Do you need a letter of support from us?

If you don’t receive funding, will you be able to fund the residency yourself?
