Call for fully-funded residencies for artists, craftspeople, makers and designers to work with digital fabrication tools and processes. 

Call for applications – Aims & Objectives:

As the second stage in our EU funded ‘Made@EU’ Creative Europe project, Plymouth College of Art are offering a number of subsidized residencies for creative professionals to develop projects that explore the integration of 3-D digital fabrication systems into their processes of design and production, to realize a new outcome.

The objectives of these residencies is to give selected applicants sustained access to appropriate traditional and digital workshop and technical support processes to enable participants to develop a project that creatively investigates the potential offered by 3-D digital ‘maker’ technologies and to explore how these new processes might integrate with their existing methods and workflows.

The residency call is geared to highly motivated creative professionals who will develop projects that exhibit innovative formal, technical, aesthetic, social, or economic achievements, within their form(s) of practice.
