[spectre] 2017 Synapse Residencies :: Call for Australian Artists now open

[Louise Vlach]

ANAT is calling for applications from artists and scientists/researchers
for the prestigious Synapse Residency program.  The program is a core
element of the Synapse initiative, which, since 2004, has supported
collaboration between artists and scientists.

The residencies are open to *Australian artists *working in any discipline
and/or medium. Residencies shall take place over 16 weeks full-time (or
part-time equivalent) during the 2017 calendar year.

To ensure a good fit between the artist and host organisation, *a joint
application must be submitted*.  It is the responsibility of the applicants
to establish contact and to identify the nature of the proposed
collaboration prior to application.

The residencies have a creative research focus and it is not expected that
they will result in the production of new work. The residencies may also be
approached as a platform for testing and informing a longer-term research
project suitable for submission to the ARC Synapse Linkage program.

Guidelines, including an application cover sheet, can be downloaded here

.

*DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS IS 5PM (CST), MONDAY 27th FEBRUARY 2017*

This is a highly competitive program; as such, it is recommended that you
discuss your project proposal with us prior to application. To do so, or
for more information about the residencies, please contact:
