If you are working on an art project involving sound, moving image or electronics?
Apply for a studio residency at our Norwegian partner organisation,  BEK.

Application deadline: 27 June 2025.
Answers by: 31 August.

This open call applies to residencies in the period 2 February – 30 June 2026.
BEK will later announce an open call for the Autumn 2026 residencies, with an application deadline in December 2025.

You can apply for a residency in our sound studio, video studio and/or electronics lab. If you need to explore something that requires a bit of space during your residency, you are welcome to use our project space for a shorter period of time by agreement.

BEK studio residency is open to professional artists who are not enrolled in a full time study program (with the exception of Ph.D. candidates). BEK favours projects that are experimental in their use of technology, or examine the relationship between technology, art and society. BEK offers their facilities and equipment, and expects artists to work independently. However, studio residents are also able to book advice sessions with our in-house experts to help with specific project needs. Residents get 24/7 access to BEK premises. Residents at BEK are invited (but not required) to present their work during their stay at BEK – as a work-in-progress or a finished result.

Please note that BEK offers their production facilities only, and do not cover travel, accommodation or project costs. BEK can provide the artist with a letter of intent for funding applications upon request.

More info about the application can be found on the website of BEK.
