Artist Residencies
Making the work of talented local artists accessible for everyone, empowering people to create fine art
Artist residencies at Photosynthesis provide opportunities for prominent or emerging photographers to tell their stories directly in a video interview and through exhibiting a collection of their work.
Over the duration of the residency, artists have free access to the studio to build a body of work.
At the opening of the exhibition(s) and during weekly in-studio days, the artist-in-residence engages directly with the broad spectrum of people who are passionate about the creation, enjoyment, and celebration of visual art.
The artist’s innovative perspectives and unique skills uplift local creatives through direct participation in resident-led workshops.

Public programming led by the resident artist (workshops / talks / events) allow for opportunities to expose and develop visual narratives and techniques to a broad audience of enthusiastic and supportive people.
