Number of Participants

Seeking 3 Collaborators-in-Residence 1 Ireland based artist, 1 International (EEA/UK/CH) based artist, and 1 person with a science or engineering background (IE/EEA/UK/CH) Cosmic Debris calls for 3 collaborators from any artistic or scientific background to create an immersive exhibition or experience for SpaceFest. The addition of a scientist in residence is new this year. We hope to create an opportunity for a science practitioner to actively participate in the creative direction of the artwork as more than a consultant. We are aware that scientific fields may be less flexible than the arts, so are open to discussing details regarding the residency duration.

Program Description

A Residency for Artists & Scientists at Greywood Arts, Killeagh and National Space Centre, Elfordstown, Cork, Ireland. Programme in 3 parts - Incubator: August 18-24; Making Residency: October 19 - November 20; Exhibition at SpaceFest: November 15-17, all 2024. Cosmic Debris calls for 3 collaborators from any artistic or scientific background to create an immersive exhibition or experience for SpaceFest. The residency is an opportunity to respond to the issue of space debris, or defunct human-made objects in space which no longer serve a useful function. Applicants are encouraged to explore innovative ways to engage visitors through interactive installations, multimedia experiences, and immersive storytelling. Past projects have made use of the numerous screens in the round room, and have included interactive sculpture, video installations and an immersive dance performance.
