We invite proposals from emerging artists based in Scotland in response to the uncertainty of our current state, for example the midst of the cost of living crisis, climate emergency and the Covid 19 pandemic, although artists are free to interpret in other ways. These residencies aim to comment on our collective future and vulnerabilities as we move through unsettling times while offering artists financial support, connections, professional development, community and space allowing more freedom to experiment creatively, be ambitious and take risks during our current state where unprecedented barriers around making work exist.Artists will be encouraged to examine social and environmental issues within their practice in light of the climate and material use. Forging sustainable relationships with a local organisation that can support their practice for future projects will also be a priority. You may have faced barriers accessing finances, facilities and struggled to get involved in a community. We particularly welcome applications from those with disabilities, from black, Asian or ethnic minority communities, LGBTQIA+ and from working class backgrounds.
