This residency is ideal for those interested in collaborating and cross-pollinating ideas with artists from other disciplines and backgrounds. E|MERGE is a unique residency that has grown organically into a national and international network of highly skilled artists who continue to support and develop one another’s work, beyond the residency itself.
In 2013, we will focus specific attention on the art of collaboration. Initial workshops and round table discussions will engage various strategies, structures, and techniques of collaboration.
Artists-in-Residence participate in one of three types of collaborative roles to collectively create work over the course of this two-week residency at Earthdance.
The Collaborative Pool:Â a non-specified hierarchy to explore group decision-making a creation. Artists are put in touch with each other prior to the residency to begin dreaming and scheming about common threads and possible directions.
