Description

Five artists will each work with one of the five senses, approaching the border as something seen, heard, touched, smelled, or tasted. Shifting from geopolitics to embodied experience, the project explores the river, shared sounds, urban textures, atmosphere, and traditions as entry points. Through research, dialogue, experiments, and public outcomes, artists translate the border’s complexity into forms audiences can physically and emotionally encounter. The aim is not to provide answers, but to widen perception and foster lasting dialogue.

Five artists will be supported through this grant, with each residency lasting 10 weeks. We consider this an optimal period for artists to become familiar with the context of Narva while having sufficient time to develop and produce a new work. The residency period also provides artists with the opportunity to explore other parts of Estonia and engage with the wider cultural context of the country.

Description

Confluence is a new artist residency designed to support and mentor future generations of diverse early years artists. Led by Magic Acorns as part of our new Sustain project, funded by Arts Council England. Confluence will take place in Great Yarmouth between March and May 2027.

Named after the convergence of the rivers Yare, Bure and Waveney, Confluence is a residency built around the creative potential of meeting points: where artists and babies, practice and research, curiosity and experience come together.

We are inviting two mid-career, multidisciplinary artists to merge with us here in Great Yarmouth, to grow their creative research practice within an early years context.
