We welcome applications from all types of creative practitioners (including visual artists, architects, filmmakers, writers, musicians, performing artists and those working across disciplines or in collaboration). We offer 2 or 4 week residencies which begin on Thursday and end on Wednesday.

Application Process: As the space is limited, we select applicants based on an evidence of their professional experience, quality of past work, project idea and compatibility with other residents staying at the same time.

Deadline: January 8, 2024

Available rooms and dates: The residency house includes two studios/bedrooms (small and large) with private bathrooms, a fully equipped shared kitchen and a washing machine. Included in the residency fee are sheets, towels, all detergents, water, electricity, heating, and internet access. In the large studio is a large screen and a projector. To get around there are bisycles available. Residents can use the garden and the greenhouse and the honey produced by the KORDON bees.

Expectations towards the artist

As this is a self-funded residency, the only expectation is that the artist works on their project during the majority of their residency. We hope that this supportive environment, without the pressure to produce, will aid creativity, experimentation and the development of new ideas. KORDON offers all creative practitioners and researches a change of pace and the space to create.
