What it is

A 10-week residency in Narva, Estonia for five Nordic or Baltic artists to explore the theme of borders and border landscapes through artistic interventions. Each artist focuses on one of five human senses—sight, hearing, touch, smell, or taste—transforming the geopolitical reality of the border into a multisensory experience to foster deeper understanding and new perspectives. Open to artists in any discipline.

Who it is for

Professional artists permanently residing in Nordic or Baltic countries (Denmark, Finland, Faroe Islands, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Åland, Latvia, Lithuania), excluding Estonian artists.

Open to artists in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and others.
