The three summer residencies are both milestones and resources, taking place at the beginning middle and end of the two year program. Each residency begins with closure to the previous year’s studies through seminars, intensive critiques, exhibitions, presentation and performances. With new students, current work done prior to commencing the program is presented, examined and discussed.
Residencies open with the graduate exhibitions, performances and a public vernissage. Sections one and three of the residency consist of studio workshops, guest lectures, artist and curator talks and critiques. The middle section of the residency acts as the starting point for new projects, facilitated by cultural theory seminars and meetings with faculty in order to plan, inform and finalize the coming year’s project plans.
