Open Call: Oean Virtual Art Residency

The Ocean Virtual Artist Residency empowers participating artists to embark on the journey of developing a new project aligned with the residency’s thematic focus: OCEAN.

Artists’ projects should delve into the multifaceted theme of OCEAN through diverse avenues, encompassing technical, conceptual, reflective, and experiential explorations. As well as ocean conservation, education, and/or protection.
