Space NYC wants to create a space that enables artists from all of over the
world to work side by side, creating a dynamic mix of visual language and
cultural practice. There are two different types of
residencies: one for artist’s interested in expanding their practice through
research and development (expand

commission or exhibition (aim residency).
