Platform: ‘Odd One Out’ Residency (Finland)

Odd one out residencies 2024.

For artists, there is often that one dream project—your creative magnum opus—that has remained elusive, trapped within the confines of the artistic career.

The Odd One Out Art Residency, scheduled for 2024, has been crafted to bring this long-awaited dream project to life. It is an invitation to break free from convention and embrace the unconventional, allowing your artistic vision to flourish and transcend previously uncharted territories.

Platform is an art organisation based in Vasa, a relatively peripheral Finnish town. It runs an art space and a residency to offer live experiences of different perspectives in a location where this would otherwise be limited.

Through the implementation of the Odd One Out residency, Platform want to provide artists with the opportunity to explore and discover the aspects that hold relevance to their individual artistry, thereby fostering a sense of relevance within the surrounding environment.

Platform offers accommodation, travel expenses (one return trip, cheapest possible), and a working grant (based on per diem, approx. 300 € per week). There is also a small production budget of 1000€, provided against relevant receipts. Participating artists are asked to realise a project, which can be presented either during the residency or at a later stage.

Platform does not at the moment house a studio, however a project space in the city centre is available. The planned projects have to take this into account; space can be rented or borrowed if needed for the realisation of the project and has to be negotiated in advance.
