LAST MINUTE CALL - AIRP2022 Botopasi Suriname
Let's meet in August-September 2022 in Botopasi.
Residency period: June 10th, 2022
Deadline application: June 10th, 2022
2020 was a festive year for us: The Botopasi village is founded 125 years ago, Artceb celebrates her 10th year anniversary and Isidoor graduated 30 years ago from Utrecht School of the Arts (HKU).
During the resicency period there will be three subjects we will lay emphasis on: art, ceramic, theater & music. The annual Botopasi Event will be from 2-4 September.
ART
We invite all disciplines. Artists have to be able to work independently. As always an artist will focus on his own program. We will always tailor your stay.
CERAMIC
The soil on site can be tested and used to create art. We will continue to experiment with different firing technics and work on a ceramic installation. In 2016 we started to make art that stays at the Center. Every individual artist decides whether he donates a piece to Art Center Botopasi.
THEATER & MUSIC
At the Botopasi Event we developed a great corporate theater project whit the locals. Every year we will produce such a project or fine tune one. The aim is to work with professionals that will uplift the local activities. The projects will be documented for our archive.
Deadline application: June 10th, 2022
