We are looking for a talented and innovative Digital Artist in Residence to join our creative team on a temporary basis. This unique opportunity is designed for a digital artist who is passionate about exploring new media, pushing creative boundaries, and contributing to a dynamic artistic environment. The residency provides a platform for the artist to develop their own work while also engaging with the organization’s community through workshops, talks, and collaborative projects.
As a Digital Artist in Residence, you will have access to our state-of-the-art digital tools, studio space, and technical support. You will be expected to produce a body of work during the residency period, which will culminate in a public exhibition or presentation. The ideal candidate is a self-motivated individual with a strong portfolio in digital art, including but not limited to digital illustration, 3D modeling, animation, virtual reality, or interactive media.
This role is ideal for artists who are looking to expand their practice, experiment with new technologies, and engage with a broader audience. You will work closely with our curatorial and education teams to design and deliver public engagement activities that reflect your artistic vision and align with our organizational goals.
The residency typically lasts between 3 to 6 months, depending on the project scope and funding. During this time, the artist will receive a stipend, access to resources, and opportunities for professional development. We encourage applications from artists of all backgrounds and disciplines who are eager to explore the intersection of art and technology.
Key qualities we are looking for include creativity, adaptability, strong communication skills, and a collaborative spirit. If you are excited about the opportunity to create impactful digital art and inspire others through your work, we would love to hear from you.
