DEADLINE 15 SEPTEMBRE

RESIDENCY AT Q‑O2

Appel à projets

DEADLINE 15 SEPTEMBRE

The resi­den­cies at Q‑O2 offer time and space for artis­tic research, reflec­tion, and crea­tion in the field of expe­ri­men­tal music and sound art. For each resi­den­cy, we pro­vide the neces­sa­ry tech­ni­cal equip­ment, a tra­vel allo­wance of 120€ maxi­mum, and accom­mo­da­tion in the Q‑O2 apart­ment for inter­na­tio­nal resi­dents. Resi­den­cies are usual­ly bet­ween three and six weeks long.

Upon com­ple­tion of the resi­den­cy, a pre­sen­ta­tion to an audience can be arran­ged if desi­red but is not expec­ted of the artist. What we require are some traces of the resi­den­cy, whe­ther these are left in word, image and/or audio form. If you are inter­es­ted to get invol­ved with the city and its inha­bi­tants, we are here to help to make such mee­tings pos­sible.

======>

Q‑O2 will host 14 resi­den­cies in 2024 of which 7 for inter­na­tio­nal and 7 for local artists (living in Bel­gium) wor­king with, on or around sound. We are open for artists, art wor­kers and theo­rists who wish to work on a research-orien­ted pro­ject (please mind that we do not orga­nise resi­den­cies direc­ted at pro­duc­tion).

We offer a work stu­dio and mate­rial, a crea­tive and com­mu­ni­ca­tive envi­ron­ment, and the pos­si­bi­li­ty to present your work to a public and/or pro­pose a work­shop. For inter­na­tio­nal resi­dents we pro­vide accom­mo­da­tion in a sha­red apart­ment and a contri­bu­tion to tra­vel expenses of max 150€. A small sub­sis­tence bud­get will be reser­ved for all artists who do not come with other fun­ding. Resi­den­cies are usual­ly four weeks long.

To apply, please send a concise pro­ject pro­po­sal of not more than one page and a link to your web­site or other secon­da­ry infor­ma­tion by Sep­tem­ber 15th to info@q‑o2.be, sta­ting “Residency24” as sub­ject. Please also pro­vide infor­ma­tion about your place of resi­den­cy and spe­ci­fy your inter­est in Brus­sels as a wor­king envi­ron­ment.
