About

Our mission is to create an international environment where all artists are welcome. A safe place to explore, contemplate and share ideas. A place of no judgement, where all artists can be free of explaining themselves, and to empower the creative spirit, which in the process has created a vibrant artistic community. The Chateau d'Orquevaux Artist Residency emphasizes the human experience and the creative process.

Life is a creative journey and we consider every moment a part of the process. New experiences stimulate creativity and revitalize the creative mind. For this reason our residency is self-motivated. The artist must immerse themselves in the French country lifestyle. The things you thought you knew back home will begin to look different. ​This magnificent estate in the French
