Summer is the best time to enjoy the sun, the Baltic Sea, and nature in Hiiumaa, and at the same time, to engage in your creative work. KORDON offers a change of pace and the space to create.
We welcome applications from all types of creative practitioners, including visual artists, architects, filmmakers, writers, curators, musicians, performing artists and those working across disciplines or in collaboration. We offer 2 or 4 week residencies which begin on Sundays and end on Saturdays.
Application Process: As the space is limited, we select applicants based on an evidence of their professional experience, quality of past work, project idea and compatibility with other residents staying at the same time.
Deadline: April 7, 2025
Available rooms and dates: The residency house includes large and small studios/bedrooms with private bathrooms and a fully equipped shared kitchen. In the large studio is a screen and a projector. To get around there are bisycles available. Residents can use the garden and the greenhouse and the honey produced by the KORDON bees. There is The Container Gallery as an exhibition and project space which residents can use when there is no other exhibition at the same time.

Expectations towards the artist
As this is a self-funded residency, the only expectation is that the artist works on their project during the majority of their residency. We hope that this supportive environment, without the pressure to produce, will aid creativity, experimentation and the development of new ideas. KORDON, for its part, deals with communication and supports the resident with the necessary help during the residency.
