This residency, part of the Ukraine Solidarity Residency Programme, provides a free live/work studio at Cable Factory, a €3,600 working grant, and travel support. The focus is on providing time and space for artistic research and dialogue with the local art scene, without requiring the production of new works or an exhibition output.
