The residency invites visual artists, performers, media practitioners, and designers to re-imagine a hiking campground as a cultural oasis. This is a 15-day residency (September 14-28, 2026) involving collective living in simple camping conditions, focusing on nature, presence, and hybrid accessibility. The program seeks process-based, collaborative, and socially engaged projects that explore bridging distances between urban and rural environments.
1300 EUR gross artist fee, travel support up to 200 EUR, accommodation in simple camping facilities, shared material budget, and technical support.
Applicants must be resident in a Creative Europe participating country, have an active artistic practice, be fluent in English, and be available for the full 15-day residency (September 14-28, 2026) and two mandatory online meetings (Aug 18 & Sept 8). Experience in community-based work is preferred.
