SPILL (your guts) RESIDENCY
SPILL is a residency program for practicing performance based artists at any stage of their career to access time and space to explore, experiment, create and research new or existing ideas, processes and projects.
SPILL residencies are not outcome imperative, however we expect artists to be engaged in their practice or project for a minimum of 20 hours per week. Whilst the organisation works primarily in contemporary dance, applications can be from any artist working in the realm of physical performance including performance art and experimental theatrical forms. We encourage applications from artists who have practices or projects that align with our core values - bravery, risk, community and collaboration.
-
GUTS provide resident artists with:
Use of the GUTS studio for the duration of your residency
Onsite shared accommodation for up to 4 people
A stipend towards travel costs
A stipend per week for the duration of your residency (please note this is per week, NOT per person)
Support from GUTS Co-Artistic Directors Frankie and Madeleine for the duration of your residency.
-
GUTS offer residencies of between 2 - 4 weeks, for individuals or groups, hosted in our studio at the Araluen Arts Centre in Mparntwe/Alice Springs.
-
Residencies take place in Mparntwe/Alice Springs, in Central Australia and it is important to think about WHY being HERE is going to be interesting, inspiring and important to your work. Mparntwe/Alice Springs is a place with a strong sense of community, so we encourage our visitors to offer some sort of public engagement while you are in residence. This could take the form of a showing of your work, a Q&A for interested locals or teaching a workshop either for adults or young people - we are open to ideas and the shape of this can be formulated during your stay.

Applications are currently closed.
