Delfina Foundation

Application guidance

Artists and curators should approach Delfina Foundation with a clear, research-driven proposal that aligns with the foundation's thematic interests and demonstrates a genuine need for a London-based residency. It is crucial to articulate how the residency would contribute to your practice and how you would engage with the local context. Since opportunities are often advertised as open calls in partnership with funders, applicants must carefully follow the specific guidelines and eligibility criteria for each call. A strong application typically includes a well-defined project outline, a compelling artist statement, and evidence of a thoughtful approach to dialogue and exchange. Given the competitive nature, early preparation and attention to detail are advised.
