I did the Uncool Residency in February 2023. I loved my time there, and felt like I made a tremendous amount of progress. I found the other residents there to be some of my favorite of the various residencies I've been a part of. I think this is due to the international nature of the program. There are group outings and studio visits with faculty and curators, which I found to be highly valuable. Overall I highly recommend it.

Uncool Artist residency was a great immersive opportunity for me to work on a very compelling and highly creative-driven stimulating environment. The space is great, well located and easy to access. High level art advisors and curators, who helped me broaden my self critique and evaluate my work in progress. Great discussions and interaction with other artists participating in the program. Well balanced routine and agenda between time spent at the studio and field trips to enrich my research and artistic network. The residency offered me the opportunity to participate in 3 exhibitions in NY & Brooklin area during that one month residency, with pieces of work developed during that period. My visual art research expanded and matured during that time. There are works that I’ve started there that are still evolving and showing in other spaces and group shows. If you dedicate yourself, this is a great program to develop new ideas, sharpen them into projects, and to deeply honor your craft.
