Description

CreArt Oulu and a non-profit organization Oulu Urban Culture are opening an open residency call for artists in the CreArt network as part of the art program production for the Frozen People festival.

Frozen People is a winter festival of electronic music and northern art in Oulu. The event is part of the Oulu2026 – European Capital of Culture program. Frozen People will be held outdoors on 28 February 2026, defying weather conditions by the frozen sea. The festival offers brutal and unique winter conditions for the world's coldest dance party and art experiences.

The goal of the residency open call is to invite artists to innovate and develop impressive installations for subarctic conditions, and create an art piece for the official art program of the Frozen People festival 2026.

This residency does not entail any obligation to produce or exhibit work. The artists will spend their residency without the support of an artistic director.

Description

ADKX will offer four artists a one-month residency, scheduled consecutively in June, July, August, and September. During the residency, the artist will focus on creating their own body of work within the public areas of the museum grounds at least three days per week. The intention of the time during public hours is for artists to spend time pursuing their own creative works, inspired by the natural areas that comprise and surround the museum’s campus as well as key objects and stories within the collection. Artists should plan to be in the public areas a minimum of 6 hours a day, from about 10-4:00PM for each of those three days. Additional time on campus will be at the artist’s discretion. Interactions with the public are intended to be short and informal, and to introduce museum visitors to the artist and the artistic process.
