Breathe Artist Residencies

Chinese Arts Centre is seeking 3 artists of Chinese descent to take
part in our Breathe Artist Residency Scheme throughout 2008/9. At
least one of the artists selected will be based in the UK.

Breathe seeks to develop creativity by providing specific
opportunities and a physical space for artists to explore ideas and
make work. Breathe is an open submission scheme and residencies are 3
months in length. In a custom-designed live/work Project Space,
artists are provided with unlimited access to a studio, allowing them
to make work at their own pace and access all the facilities at
Chinese Arts Centre. The Breathe residency includes £1000 materials
budget, £300 travel and research and £20 per diem.

Breathe aims to contribute to the development of a confident Chinese
artistic community, providing inspiration for future generations of
artists.
