Call to apply for a residency at EKWC, Netherlands
The EKWC is currently inviting artists and designers, of all variety and from all backgrounds, to apply for one of our twelve-week residencies. A residency at EKWC offers creative professionals an opportunity to explore the possibilities of ceramics and to expand their technical and material knowledge. What we need from applicants is an imaginative workplan, an experimental attitude, and/or a strong concept — something that you would like to achieve in twelve weeks’ time which would not be possible without the facilities or advice of the EKWC. It is important that applicants consider the twelve-week timeline of our residencies when planning their projects. Time for experimentation and play should not be undervalued, and processes such as drying-time and firing should not be underestimated. Remember that the EKWC is not a production facility and it is not always advisable to add the pressures of an upcoming exhibition or the execution of a large work to your time in residence. Every dream is welcomed and will be given its due consideration, but keep in mind that the material and its processes sometimes have a mind of their own.
Deadline 2024.08.31
