Research residencies
ISIS offers opportunities for artists to undertake 3 week to one month research residencies. These opportunities are open to any artist from around the world, and we aspire to have a good mix of international, national and regional artists.
We place artists at the centre of all our programmes creating physical, virtual and strategic ‘spaces’ for the production of art. We are interested in artists whose work seeks to reveal the world we live in, providing new perspectives on identity and belonging. We seek out and engage with artists of all backgrounds and cultures to facilitate international and inter-cultural exchange.
We our committed to showing work within the public realm, engaging as wide an audience as possible in dialogue with artists and artworks, making our projects accessible to a diverse public.
Our offices are based in Newcastle city centre, where we have two studio spaces for visiting artists, a media training room and an inflatable touring venue for sharing media arts with a wider audience.
Selection criteria:
• Artists that share our ethos for socially engaged practice.
• Experience of using digital media and technologies in the creation of art works.
• The ability to research, interpret and present ideas.
• Experience of working on fixed term residencies with deadlines.
• A professional practice, students not eligible.
