THE SPACE


















THIS RESIDENCY IS FOR SELF DIRECTED PROJECTS AND WITH MANY POSSIBILITIES.

BUT YOU DO NEED TO BE READY FOR A CULTURAL EXPERIENCE AND BE SELF RELIANT IN A CITY WHICH IS NOT FOCUSED ON TOURISTS BUT EMBRACES INDIVIDUALITY AND CREATIVITY . 

THE STUDIO RESIDENCY IS UPSTAIRS OF THE BUILDING WITH AN ARCHITECTURE FIRM AS THE DOWNSTAIRS NEIGHBOURS .



THE OFFER OF THIS RESIDENCY AND ITS STRENGTH IS THAT WE WILL INTRODUCE YOU TO OTHER ARTISTS IN YOUR PRACTICE SUCH VISUAL ARTISTS - ESPECIALLY TEXTILE ARTISTS BUT ALSO FILM AND THEATRE MAKERS , PHOTOGRAPHERS , SET DESIGNERS, SCULPTORS OR MUSICIANS. 

AS WELL AS MAKE CONTACTS WITH GALLERIES AND OTHER CREATIVE SPACES.






IT'S SUITABLE FOR MANY CREATIVE DISCIPLINES AS THE WORK/LIVING  SPACE IS VERY FLEXIBLE AND LARGE .

LODZ


  



   
LODZ JUST IS WHAT IT IS :








IT'S CONTEMPORARY IN POCKETS BUT CAN NOT HIDE IT'S UGLINESS!







   BUT ITS CERTAINLY BEAUTIFUL IN
            IT'S CONTRARINESS




 EVEN THOUGH IT IS OUR CITY AND WE ARE SLIGHTLY BIAS THERE ARE MANY COOKY FANS SUCH AS DAVID LYNCH WHO HAS HAD AN AFFAIR WITH IT FOR YEARS!

 IT'S ALL THOSE STRANGE BUILDINGS AND SECRET WORLDS BEYOND GATES . IT WILL INTEREST ANYONE WITH AN IMAGINATION AND SENSE OF ADVENTURE.


  IT'S INDUSTRIAL AND TEXTILE HISTORY BRINGS ITS FLAVOUR .
   IT ONCE HAD A LARGE JEWISH POPULATION WHO BUILT THE MANY WAREHOUSES, FACTORIES AS WELL AS PALACES.




  
    IT ALSO HAS ONE OF THE LARGEST JEWISH CEMETERIES IN EUROPE.







       IT IS ALSO WELL KNOWN FOR IT'S FILM SCHOOL






AND JUST BEFORE IT BECAME ANOTHER SAD DYING TOWN OF THE POST COLD WAR YEARS ...SOME ARTISTS SAVED IT BY CREATING ONE OF THE LARGEST  SITES FOR STREET ART 





LODZ HAS A THRIVING ARTISTIC  COMMUNITY AND WE ARE HAPPY TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MANY OF ITS  PEOPLE AND PLACES .
