Artist Opportunity

Vivid Lab Call Out

1 November 2024 – 30 September 2025

Vivid Projects is welcoming new proposals for artists to take up residency with us as part of Vivid Lab in 2025.

 

What does the programme offer?

Vivid Lab offers an environment for artists to develop projects that explore new processes, ideas, techniques and critical thinking. We will work responsively with your research and development proposal and can support your practice through mentoring, bid writing, access to audio-visual resources, a project space and unique archival resources. Our small accessible project space is available for working onsite and sharing your project and we can utilise public facing spaces in The Warehouse building. 

We welcome proposals focused on digital art, live performance, sound art, installation, moving image, AV and archival exploration, collaborative & social practices, web based works along with interests focused on programming, writing and curating.

For examples of work artists have developed with us as part of Vivid Lab so far, explore our current Lab residents ways towards something, and previous projects developed within the residency such as Antonio Roberts’ A Boy is a Gun, Maxx Gentleman’s Sombre Music Fades Out and XYZ Project’s Dr XYZ. We have also worked in partnership with other institutions with this programme including Ikon Gallery to curate Vivid Projects + Ikon performance art laboratory.

 

Enquiries and proposals should be sent to yasmeen@vividprojects.org.uk. 

This is an ongoing call and we will look at proposals monthly from December. We look forward to hearing from you. A list of anticipated FAQs is available Vivid Lab 2025 FAQs
