Funded Residency Program for Artists and Researchers from Earthwise in Denmark

Earthwise invites artists and researchers to a funded residency program which is a year-round invitation to spend time with the living land at a place where art and research intertwine. This program aims to improve the interdisciplinary collaboration between artist and researcher.

Residency periods:

• The first residency will take place from January 9th – February 19th 2023.
• The second residency will take place from April 17th – May 29th 2023.

If you get this opportunity, you will have:

• Working space.
• Accommodation in private rooms in a house shared with Earthwise volunteers.
• Access to a rich library and other facilities of Earthwise.
• Dialogue and conversations with Earthwise’s host.
• A stipend of 1.800 € for each of the two persons.
• A small budget for materials. 

You should follow the following criteria:

•  Each residency is for two collaborating working partners: One artist and one researcher/ specialist. 
• Performing artists and visual artists with an interest in time-based work and performance who (preferably) already have contact or an ongoing collaboration with a researcher. 
• Artists or researchers, who are looking for a collaborator to apply, however, researcher-artist collaborations take priority.
• Have a genuine interest in interdisciplinary approaches, and preferably some experience of working with the-more-than-human.  
• The researcher/specialist should be actively engaged in research processes and hold a master’s degree, preferably a Ph.D. degree. 
• The researcher/specialist may have a background in the Humanities, Social Sciences, or STS. 
• The artist must pursue the theme of more-than-human through primarily visual or performing arts. 
• Both emerging/upcoming artists, as well as mid-career artists, are encourage to apply. 

Responsibilities: 

During each residency period, the two residents are asked to: 

• Hold 1-2 dissemination events or ‘artist/researcher talks’ for the local community. 
• Participate in the next Earthbound Symposium in 2023. 
• Do other presentations within the network, perhaps online.
