Program Description

Shared values We believe that contemporary art practise requires both flexibility as well as stability, a self-directed approach, and a guided environment. We seek candidates who envision a solid plan for development and production and who are willing to participate with the rhythm, which propels our artist-led organisation. The residency aims ● To support the production of art and the theory of art. ● To evoke discourse on art and art practices within a local and global context. ● To promote and relay critical and researched based production of art. ● To facilitate exchange between art intermediaries and artists, creating an expert network. How to apply ● Applying is done digitally and in English via the online application form sent to info@seafoundation.eu. ● The application should contain the completed application and documentation. ● For duos/collectives: only one of you needs to fill out the form.
