Program Description

KAMEN encourages an outcome to the time spent at the residency, but is not outcome oriented. Each participant is invited to hold a public presentation, in any preferred format, scale and environment, at the end of their residency period. KAMEN facilitates exhibitions, presentations and screenings to be held at a number of institutional, alternative or public spaces, in collaboration with our partners. Residents can also hold a lecture, master-class or workshop for Academy of Fine Arts students in Trebinje. KAMEN encourages development of projects with the local communities, organisations and soil. Applications can be send to: info@kamen-artistresidency.com. It includes a project proposal and its presumed outcome and a portfolio that gives an overview of the development in your work over the last 5 years.
