Application form through this link
Two pop-up residency spots have opened up here in the WTS TAiR Studio.
These residency places are open to artists local to Mparntwe or based anywhere in Australia, during the following timeframes –
Period 1: 1-31 May
Period 2: 1-20 June
Apply as an individual or a duo or even as a collective!
In your application, please select which time period you prefer.
We’re also open to artists taking up the full 7 weeks if creating collaboratively / in a duo or group.
Are you an artist from Mparntwe who wants to invite a collaborator to town? Are you a duo or collective looking for a space to develop your work?
This is the perfect opportunity to make it happen.
Artists are asked to respond to the theme ‘Reply 2 Me’.
This might be through:
working collaboratively with another artist/non-artist
responding to another resident’s TAiR journal/documentation
artists in each residency exploring similar themes and ideas
or working in similar (or opposing) mediums
residents in each period texting/emailing back and forth
Open to all mediums: painters, ceramicists, writers, linguists, poets, actors, dancers, sound artists, designers, illustrators – all the thinkers and doers.
Includes a $750 artist stipend (per residency).
It’s coming up quick! So get in fast.
Applications close in 10 days – midnight Friday 18 April.
Successful applicant notified: Tuesday 22 April
Residency periods:
