Residencies Reflected (Paperback)

Paperback. Residencies Reflected looks at international artist residencies with a societal and ecological mind shift, treating both the productive experimentation and artistic freedom they enable and the information about places, environments, and communities that they produce as well as their artistic, poetic, psychological, social roles in the ecological crisis. When artworks are born out of a residency, that period is mostly invisible when the works are eventually presented, and another aim of this book is to unveil the creative process embedded in artist residencies. The nine essays and one interview contained herein examine the potentials of residencies as communities and environments for artistic work. The authors are curators, artists, and academics operating in the residency sector. The publication is edited by Irmeli Kokko, and it is published by Saari Residence in collaboration with Mousse Publishing.
