Open Call 2027 — House as a Teacher

Mustarinda, a residency situated in the Finnish forest, has opened its call for the 2027 program, structured around the theme 'The House as a Teacher'. The residency supports practitioners across disciplines—artists, researchers, and other professionals—offering time and space to develop work in a remote, natural environment. The thematic focus suggests an inquiry into the house as a site of knowledge, pedagogy, and perhaps ecological or architectural significance. The call is open to practitioners at various career stages, with no specified restrictions. Mustarinda's program is known for its interdisciplinary and environmentally engaged approach, and this theme likely encourages projects that consider the house as a metaphor, a physical structure, or a social space. The residency provides an opportunity for concentrated work, dialogue, and engagement with the local context. While specific details about the residency duration, facilities, and financial support are not provided in the call, the thematic and institutional context positions this as a serious opportunity for those whose practice engages with questions of dwelling, pedagogy, and ecology. The deadline for applications is 13 October 2026.
