HOUSE international + local Open Call
On 12 September 2021 by Deej_Fabyc1Please submit your application here by 30th September
Live Art Ireland invites you to make a proposal for 3-6 week residency at Milford House. Milford and its environs are entangled in the Demesne history as a contested site. (Please see house history here) We welcome live art and video proposals engaging the concept of anti-colonial, both in Ireland and abroad. We are particularly interested in artists who engage with possibilities (or impossibilities) of emancipatory, relational, and reparative art processes.
Please note: this is a research residency, so there is no need for a finished performance or film outcome. Although if a project does develop to a point of audience engagement, we are happy to present it on our website and to a live audience, if possible. You will be asked to provide the website with photo documentation and short description of your progress during your residency stay.
Those who are selected for the residency will be invited to submit a live art film document for our online live art video festival in December.
Residency 1, beginning 20th October includes a trip to the exhibit homeland 2021— a project hosted by Damar House Gallery on the 23rd (Roscrea).
Residency 2, beginning 10th November includes a visit Switch on the 14th (Nenagh),
Residency Includes: Each bed/Studio has an ensuite shower room. The kitchen is shared. Parts of the barns, the fields and woodlands and the fine rooms of the house are all available as places to develop live art projects and art films.
We do not currently have funds for artist payment as this is a pilot residency scheme. If selected we can write you a letter of acceptance which can be used to apply for funding.
Residents are encouraged to cook a meal together in the evenings. We do not cook meat here both for the environment and because getting rid of meat waste is an issue in the countryside. We do a weekly online vegetarian grocery shop you will be asked to contribute towards this please see example shop below (for two artists in residence). Snacks etc you can bring or buy yourself locally you will be allocated a food cupboard and space in the fridge.
Transport: There are buses to Nenagh and trains to Cloughjordan – we can pick you up from there. We have bicycles available to ride to the nearest shop in Terryglass by Lough Derg. If you have a car you are welcome to drive it here.
Residency Covid Safe Guidance: Artists will be encouraged to take lateral flow tests and to show proof of vaccination. Masks will be worn in the common parts of the house until all artists have been there for 5 days and taken a negative lateral flow test
Accessibility: There are no ground floor bedrooms at present although there is a shower and toilet on the ground floor. The Studio bedrooms are on the second and third floor so there are steps to them. We welcome artists who identify under the social model of disability and welcome feedback on accommodations.
The curatorial panel is Deej Fabyc, Lucy Day, Aine O’Hara, Kate Walsh & Francis Fay
