R|Artist Residency: Natural Ecologies is open to mid-career and senior artists interested in critically applying new, sustainable technologies in their practice with a focus on ecological conservation and regeneration. Across five months, the artist will work on a body of new work and have access to UniSC resources including the Maker Space, the first MIT-accredited Fab Lab in Queensland and the CAVE2, a powerful visualisation tool that can immerse its audience in visual and audio content, and be connected with the Creative Ecologies Research Cluster and its associated network of practitioners and researchers.
This is not a space-based residency and there is no requirement to be on-site at UniSC for a specified time. The residency provides access to specialist resources that will enable you to learn and critically apply new technologies in your practice with the support of specialists. The successful candidate will have a creative practice that is focused on issues of ecological conservation and regeneration and a desire to experiment with and apply new technologies as a tool to engage audiences in new ways.
Towards the end of the residency period, the successful applicant will be required to deliver a talk and showing of the work (or work in progress) developed during the residency. The form of this showing will be negotiated with the artist.
What you will receive from The Refinery:
• $5,000 artist fee
• $1,000 towards production
• Time with UniSC technical and academic staff
• Use of UniSC equipment and spaces
R|Artist Residency is by application. Applications will be accepted up until midnight 24 March 2024.
