They welcome diverse artistic themes and disciplines rooted in the principles of risk-taking, creative expression, and critical thinking. This residency will culminate in an exhibition in Toronto, Canada, with a specific date to be determined. Artists may work in drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, film, video, new media, or interdisciplinary practices. $6,000 will be awarded.
