ELIGIBILITY & REQUIREMENTS
The Plexus Projects Studio Residency Program is open to individual artists working in any media and at any stage in their career. The residency accepts both international and local artists. It is well-suited to artists already living in the New York City metropolitan area as housing and transportation support are not provided. All communications are conducted in English. The residency fee is $2400 USD per 1-month session or $600 per 1-week session (October sessions). A limited number of partial residency awards are available upon inquiry.
THE STUDIO SPACE & RESIDENCY
The studio is located at Plexus Projects in the vibrant Greenpoint, Brooklyn neighborhood of New York City. The space is approximately 350 square feet with 10’ ceilings and includes amenities such as a ceiling mounted projector, tables, chairs, and WIFI. (See studio photos and details below). The studio and self-directed residency may be used for light art production, photography, video, creative research, art documentation, and installation experimentation. It is also suitable for private studio visits with the artist’s own guests. Please note that the studio is work-only and is not appropriate for artists working with methods that involve dust, wet media, fumes, debris, or loud noise. Each resident artist may also take advantage of weekly studio visits for project advising and feedback with Plexus Projects founder and artist Laura Splan. Studio visits are typically conducted over zoom but can be conducted in-person if scheduling allows.
ONLINE SOLO EXHIBITION
At the conclusion of the residency, artists work will be featured in an online solo exhibition of work related to their time in residence.
