WATERSHED WINTER RESIDENCIES
BRISTOL, UK
DEADLINE: 11/1/23
This is a fantastic opportunity to develop an idea at the intersection of art and technology, that responds to the theme of 'Other Minds'. A chance to share ideas, meet incredible people, experiment, make and think.
There are two residencies available. Each comes with a structured programme, work space at the Pervasive Media Studio, a network of peers, plus financial, technical and critical support. This is a remarkable opportunity for creative practitioners to have time, resources and freedom to get an idea off the ground.
Theme:
Our theme for this year is "Other Minds". We're looking for work that explores intelligences different to our own: animals, machines, or something stranger. We want to ask questions like these: What does it mean to live in a world filled with different forms of thought? How can we create an idea of personhood for computer networks, beehives, or forests, while still maintaining our essential humanity? And how can we use ideas like "artificial intelligence" to expand our understanding of the world, rather than creating new ways to exploit it?
AWARD: 2,750 £ + 500 £ for materials.

PROSPER - RESIDENCY

PROSPER is an international project co-funded by the Creative Europe program of the
EU, led by 5 partner organizations (LOOP (Greece), Eho animato (Serbia), Oyoun
(Germany), Peripetija and LDA Struga (North Macedonia), which is exploring the theme
of environmentally challenged regions of the Balkans by inviting artists, designers,
researchers, cultural workers and thinkers of all disciplines to participate in an
residency. The periphery selected for this open call is Lake Ohrid in North Macedonia.
It is a UNESCO site which has been suffering ecologically due to unsustainable tourism
practices, and it represents a common type of environmental challenge that we see
globally and more frequently than ever before.
Participants will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in creative work that is
informed by local communities that live and work in this periphery. This exchange
takes place in the form of a 30 day residency with a group of eight international
participants, and ends with a collectively curated one-day festival where the
participants showcase the work they developed during the residency. The key
objective is to inspire participants to find connections between their practice, the
fragile environment they are inhabiting, and the people who live there, while ensuring
respect for the core values: sustainability, inclusivity, and decolonial thinking.

ATELIER DE L’ACHILLE
SAINT-MALO, FRANCE
DEADLINE: 11/24/2023
Combining support for artistic creation, contemporary artists, and the promotion of heritage, such is the ambition of the municipality of Saint-Malo. The opening in summer 2021 of the Achille artistic residency, located in the exceptional and inspiring setting of the La Briantais estate, bears witness to this.
Nestled on the edge of this 27 hectare park which houses a castle dating from the end of the 19th century, recently classified as a Historic Monument, and which dominates the La Rance estuary with a breathtaking view of the sea, this old farmhouse is a privileged place that we wish to share with emerging artists.
It is a question of encouraging their work and creating a sensitive link with the public, through workshops outside the walls and an outing of residency in an exhibition space in Saint-Malo integrated into the cultural programming of the City. The Achille residence embodies the desire to bring together nature and culture in the heart of a city lung.
