The Unifiedfield Nomadic Artist In Residence Program in The Philippines has also 3 available slots on a secret paradisiacal island in Surigao del Sur. Apply now! For more information, contact us at: info@theunifiedfield.org

The Unifiedfield Nomadic Artist-In-Residence Program is glad to annouce the first local artist granted to participate in our residency: Soi Kalinaw. The artist will produce a site-specific performance in collaboration with Marta Moreno Muñoz [dates tbc].

Access to The Unifiedfield’s Nomadic Artist-In-Residence program in The Philippines is open to all artists, filmmakers, musicians, writers and curators without restriction, but priority will be given to artists working on relational, site-specific, environmental, mobile and travel-based projects on the experimental and interdisciplinary fringes.

The Unifiedfield is an independent non-profit artist-run organization with no external funding. To cover the residency expenses we charge the invited artists a residency fee*. The Unifiedfield can assist the artists with letters of invitation to enable to raise additional funds to cover, if needed, the residency fees as well as the artist’s production costs, living and travel expenses, etc.

* The amount will vary depending on the project and travel costs of the nomadic residency. The Unifiedfield will design an itinerary and budget / week / person including: accommodation, meals, transport within The Philippines, interpreter, guide, assistance in the pre-production and realization of the projects, documentation and organization of several events for diffusion of the projects. The residency fees will also contribute to the sustainability and continuation of The Unifiedfield Artist-in-Residence Program in the future since we are planning to grant two local artists a year.

The Unifiedfield will select the most interesting proposals, in terms of quality and artistic interest, from the total number of applications. For artists who apply, this is a production-based residency where The Unifiedfield will assist the participants in the development of a new project or the continuation of an existing one.

Genuinely attentive to the artists’ needs, The Unifiedfield remains flexible, and if the occasion arises where a larger space is required for a certain event, The Unifiedfield can collaborate locally and internationally with other art spaces and institutions. Eventually, if circumstances allow and under the discretion of The Unifiedfield, we can organize several other presentations for further promotion of the artists.
