ARTIST DEVELOPMENT
financial support, performance opportunities, and artist networking
CDS understands that a major priority for performing artists is time and space to undertake their practice.
Open Studio Residences are offered to enable artists who find themselves needing something to push their practice further. Artists who feel that they are unsure where to go next, have old work that may need to be re-developed before finding new partners, or who don’t know what to make.
The residencies focus on process over product and invite the public to explore artists’ practice.
Each residency culminates in a public open studio. Follow link to residency artists for dates and to RSVP.
The residency artists present an excitingly diverse range of practice and research.
A panel of CDS Artists Members reviewed applications and awarded residencies to the following artists:
Jo Cork – Performance Studio
Eleanor Sikorski – Research Studio
Malik Nashad – Research Studio
Melody Squire – Performance Studio
Ray Prendergast & Lennie – Research Studio
Shakti Orion – Performance Studio
Bridget Lappin – Research Studio
Ray Prendergast & Lennie – Research Studio
A selection of photos from each Open Studio Event will be uploaded here.
