Gasworks

Gasworks organises a series of International Fellowships for UK-based artists. The programme enables up to five artists each year to take up residencies in organisations working within the Triangle Network, in countries including India, Bolivia, China, Jordan, Pakistan, Kenya, Ethiopia, Nigeria and Mauritius.

The Fellowships enable artists to research, develop their practices and build links with the local artistic community. Unlike the institutionally-led model of residencies, Gasworks' Fellowships place artists within smaller, artist-run organisations that allow a more grass-roots engagement with different artistic and cultural contexts. The residencies are process-led, encouraging risk taking and experimentation with new ideas and media. This programme is funded by Arts Council England.
