RESIDENCY REQUIREMENTS

The Plexus Projects Studio Residency Program is open to individual artists working primarily in digital forms such as web, code, animation, video, 3D, or imaging. The studio is located at Plexus Projects in the vibrant Greenpoint, Brooklyn neighborhood of New York City. The space is approximately 350 square feet with 10’ ceilings and includes amenities such as a ceiling mounted projector, tables, chairs, and WIFI. (See more studio details below). The studio may be used for art production and studio visits with the artist’s own guests during this one month self-directed residency. This residency is ideal for individuals and not available to groups, collectives, or collaborative teams. The studio is not appropriate for artists working with methods that involve dust, wet media, fumes, debris, or loud noise. As this residency does not provide living and transportation support, it is best suited to artists already living in New York City. All communications and meetings are conducted in English.
