Program Description
The residency program at Skaftfell creates an environment for inspiration, focus, and experimentation. It allows artists to experience life and work in a unique community where creativity is applied to the everyday and offers conditions that enrich the dialogue between art and life. Skaftfell is far from the busy centers of contemporary art, and offers a refuge, a hiding place, and a thinking space for artists and other creative practitioners. We encourage artists in residence to embrace the idea of a slow residency, and to allow themselves time for contemplation, preparing the ground for a shift in their practices. The self-directed residency program hosts 3-4 artists simultaneously, for 1–3 months within the winter, spring or autumn term. We encourage artists to stay for 2 months or longer, in order to get deeper into the place and their practice here. The program is closed in July and December.
