Applications now closed for 2019 Grindell’s Hut Artist in Residence
Country Arts SA is inviting artists from all disciplines to apply for a
three-week residency at Grindell’s Hut located in the heart of
the Vulkathunha – Gammon Ranges National Park, one of the many stunning parks
in the Flinders Ranges & Outback region of South Australia.
Established more than 14 years ago, the vision
for the residency program is to provide an environment of extraordinary natural
beauty with historic significance for artists to pursue their practice while
immersed in an outback environment. The park forms part of the traditional
country of the Adnyamathanha people and is rich with cultural significance. It
is also a haven for many rare and endangered plants and animals.
Last year’s Grindell’s Hut Artist in Residence, Gregory Carosi, said “My Grindell’s Hut residency was a profound and amazing experience, and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity. The residency has been a thoroughly rewarding experience that has extended my practice and provided incredible artistic impetus for upcoming bodies of work that will seek to do justice to the visual and cultural architecture of the Northern Flinders region”.
The Grindell’s Hut Artist in Residence program is a partnership between Country Arts SA, and The Department for Environment and Water through the Vulkathunha‐Gammon Ranges National Park Co‐Management Board, and managed by Country Arts SA. One artist will be selected to take part in the residency program which will run from 7 – 28 October 2019.
