CO-RESIDENCY Details
Founded in the middle of a crisis… CO–RESIDENCY is a new kind of art residency to connect, collaborate and create during times of conflict and crisis.The COVID-19 pandemic has halted the world's economy (and shocked healthcare systems); we couldn't help but notice the great impact on peoples' livelihoods. The most vulnerable in this crisis are creative freelancers, contract staff, service workers and those who rely on tourism. So many artists are experiencing crisis in their communities. With the closure of galleries, museums, creative events and the cancellation of projects; and with so many artists relying on alternative sources of income, their ability to create and engage during this time is significantly affected. With this new normal, we wanted to explore new way to support the arts and artists around the world. Our vision is to conduct a global remote residency that will provide financial support to artists in all fields during this time. The program will not only address a financial need, but will allow artists to collaborate, show their work online, and create commentary on the impacts of this global conflict. We want to provide a space to wrestle with and respond to topics bubbling to the surface during this time: race, nationality, financial markets, global economy, governments, communities, and the list goes on. Beyond this one global crisis, the residency will be a place that will facilitate art's response to conflicts and global issues into the future.
