Gasworks London, the Jan Warburton Charitable Trust and the Office for Contemporary Art Aotearoa invite applications from early-career artists, living and working in Aotearoa, for a three-month, fully funded residency at Gasworks, London, from 6 October – 22 December 2025.
The residency offers an early / mid-career artist opportunities for self-led professional development, artistic exchange, and experimentation and development of new international networks, and as such can be significant for the advancement of their career. Alongside the time for extensive practice-based research and access to artists in London with similar interests, Gasworks provides opportunities for the artist to develop new work and showcase their practice and conceptual focuses to an international audience.
The residency provides return flights to London, 24/7-access to a private studio space in the Gasworks building, accommodation in a house shared with three or four other international artists in residence with Gasworks, plus living and materials allowance.
The critical nature at the heart of Gasworks encourages the fostering of active dialogues with local creative practitioners, including artists, curators and writers, as well as direct engagement with important London-based artist-run spaces, collectives, galleries, museums, patrons, and collectors.
More information and how to apply can be found on the Gasworks website here.
Deadline: Applications close on Monday 19 May, at 1pm UK time
This will be the ninth in this series of annual residencies, which started in 2016.
Artists who have been awarded the residency include: Sriwhana Spong, Katrina Beekhuis, Hikalu Clarke, Christina Pataialii, Sarah Rose, Campbell Patterson, Sorawit Songsataya, and Shiraz Sadikeen.
The residency is a partnership between Gasworks London, the Jan Warburton Charitable Trust and the Office for Contemporary Art Aotearoa, and is made possible by the generous support of the individuals who contribute to the New Zealand Friends of Gasworks.
