Spring 2021 Remote Residency
Artists are expected to spend 5-10 hours weekly on their projects. Every other week, each artist will live stream an update/studio visit between 12pm – 4pm pst for 30 min-45 min, with a 10 min ending window for Q&A. In between live streams, we will need weekly documentation for our website/social media (Photos/videos/timelapses/ etc.) by end of day every Sunday. Each artist is paid $200 per month upon acceptance.
We are looking for proposals to create remote works for interactive pieces — we are open to proposals, please see guidelines/suggestions below.
Sound art, new media/video performances, gestural and ephemeral displays, and other iterations considered.
Suggested topics include: survival, pedagogy, futurity, surveillance, decolonization, augmentation, resistance, collective care, craft, joy kinship, transformation, death of capital, etc. All self-identifying queer, trans, and non-binary artists encouraged to apply. Priority given to Black and Queer, trans people of color.
