Selected resident artists will be provided with individual studios of approximately 25 square meters and access to shared facilities. During the residency period, programs such as a critic-matching program, open studios, and group exhibitions will be run to share the processes and outcomes of creation step by step.

The announcement period for the open call runs from February 11 to March 2, and applications will be accepted by email from February 23 until 6:00 p.m. on March 2. The screening process will consist of a document review and a presentation interview to determine the final successful candidates.
