Verein Innenhofkultur invites applications from Creative Europe-based artists for the Troubled Water Residency. This opportunity is open to two collaborating artists from the music sector, who will work together on a new project centred around the theme Troubled Waters. The residency will take place from 29 September to 24 November 2024 at Villa For Forest in Klagenfurt, Austria.
The ‘Troubled Waters’ residency project addresses the pressing issue of water privatisation in Austria, particularly evident in Klagenfurt due to minimal public access to the 50 km around the Worthersee lake. Two artists will collaborate to create a 40-minute project exploring this theme, emphasising water access as a human right. Stemming from its inception after the ‘For Forest’ exhibition highlighting human exploitation of nature, the villa prioritises showcasing art confronting environmental issues. The resulting project will be presented at the New Adits festival in Klagenfurt at the end of the residency.
The residency provides working space, accommodation, per diem (25 EUR per participant per day), travel expenses (350–700 EUR), green travel top-up for participants long distance travel by green transport, family top-up, disability top-up, and final performance fee.
