Grade Studio is seeking interns to join our team. We create large-scale site-specific sculptures inspired by changing geological and biological forms and systems in the natural world. The studio’s sculptures are exhibited internationally in museums and galleries, and outdoors in urban public spaces, sculpture parks and nature. Current and upcoming exhibition venues include the Smithsonian Museum of American Art, the Seattle Art Museum, the Anchorage Museum, Kew Gardens, and Domaine du Chaumont. Our team of 15 people encompass a wide range of backgrounds with diverse skills and interests.
We are seeking interns with a varied array of skills, though we ask that applicants have a basic knowledge of woodworking tools and machines. Ideal applicants are enthusiastic, patient, able to work with a team and are creative problem solvers. Current and upcoming projects involve woodworking, mold making, and computer modeling.
SESSIONS:
Internships are unpaid and can range from two to five days per week for one to three months.
We are currently accepting applications for Fall 2021 and Winter 2022. The fall session begins Aug 15th.
Interns will predominantly be working on a project for the Kew Gardens in London, England, and the Domaine du Chaumont in Chaumont-sur-Loire, France. Please note, interns will assist in fabrication, and will not be present for installation at either site.
The studio is located in South Seattle, near the Rainier Beach Light Rail Station.
