Residency Opportunity: Sturt Craft Centre

by | Oct 10, 2013 | , , , , , , , | 1 Comment

Sturt Craft Centre
invites applications from experienced craft practitioners to the Sturt
Artist-in-Residence program.  Residencies occur in the craft disciplines
of ceramics, jewellery/metalwork, textiles and woodwork. Four to six
residencies occur at Sturt each year.
Sturt encourages small scale production and individually designed work which may be promoted through Sturt Gallery. 
Each year
professional residencies may be awarded specifically to develop a body
of work which can be produced and made, at Sturt, during the Residency
time.
Sturt sees the
residency program as an important adjunct to its overall aim of
providing support for Australian contemporary craft and design through a
program of teaching, retail, exhibition and residencies. The emphasis
of the residency program will be to support craftspeople and
designer-makers who are sympathetic to this philosophy.
Three categories of residency are available:
• Professional Residency
• Self Directed Residency
• Graduate Residency
All applicants should fill out the Application form and include:
  • A short written proposal, briefly describing type of work to be carried out.
  • Current CV.
  • Images of work relating to your proposal (digital, prints or slides).
  • Any other relevant promotional material.
  • Graduate residents must include a letter of support from a tutor or supervisor.
Applications
for all categories close on the 31 October for positions in the
following year. Successful applicants will be notified in mid December
for positions to take place in the following year.

movie day: ENCAIX (FITTING)

ENCAIX (FITTING) from Eva Rodriguez and Ignasi Llobet on Vimeo.
ENCAIX (FITTING) a film by Ignasi Llobet and Eva Rodríguez about the work of contemporary ceramics artists Jordi Marcet and Rosa Vila-Abadal (www.terracroma.net)

The pieces fit. Tones attract. Not fit all in harmony, some accept the company, others turn away. Place the appropriate fragment, but you know that this will mark the passage towards the end. Fragments escape, slip, fall down and many are broken. One by one. One plus one. Fitting. Fitting. Fitting. Feel the pleasure of the fit, agile and fast. A magic moment: everything fits. everything flows..
