Description
The French Institute of Senegal is launching its call for applications for creative residencies at Villa Ndar in 2027.
Villa Ndar is a multidisciplinary residency that has been hosting artists, curators, designers, craftspeople, architects, thinkers, writers, and researchers from diverse backgrounds since 2019. A place for creation, research, and knowledge sharing, it supports both established artists and emerging talents engaged in a professional practice.
Conceived as a space for dialogue between territories, disciplines, and imaginations, the Villa supports projects that explore contemporary narratives, African cultural dynamics, and the challenges of the modern world.

Description
Through this open call we are looking for our ninth Incidental Artist. This is not imagined as a placement at either the School of Art or Eastside Projects, but as an opportunity to spend time working in and with the city, supported by and connected to both organisations, with funding from the Wheatley Fellowship and Eastside Projects.
As APG proposed, Incidental Artists begin with an open brief and the freedom to ‘watch the doings and listen to the noises’ in a particular context. This period of R&D builds into a Feasibility Study and a proposal that is developed and realised through collaboration with Eastside Projects. Previous projects have varied in scale, complexity, and ambition and therefore timelines are responsive to ideas, but as a guide we would hope to achieve some kind of public outcome within 12 - 18 months of the start date.

Description
Even prior to creating a formalized program, residencies have been a cornerstone of our mission. Before adopting the name Pioneer Works, our founding team proposed the "Museum of the Working Artist". While the name didn’t stick—the ethos did. We are deeply committed to providing emerging artists, musicians, and technologists with a space to work, tools to create, and a platform to exchange ideas.
Each September, we select residents through an open call. Aided by a jury of experts and Alumni Residents, Pioneer Works welcomes residents who work outside existing models and “norms” of their field and will benefit from our unique facilities and culture. As such, Pioneer Works shifts and evolves to reflect the interests and work of each new cohort of residents, from public education offerings to Second Sundays, a monthly forum of artistic experimentation through activations, open studios, and performance.
