About the residency
Café Tissardmine is an artist residency and creative retreat located in the Moroccan Sahara, near the village of Tissardmine. Founded by artist Karen Hadfield, it provides a unique environment for artists, writers, and researchers to develop work away from urban distractions. The ethos is one of slow, immersive practice, where the desert landscape and local culture become integral to the creative process. The residency encourages experimentation and reflection, offering time and space rather than production pressure.

Artists should apply through the website, typically with a project proposal or statement of intent. The residency is open to artists at any career stage, but a clear sense of how the desert context will inform your practice is beneficial. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and early inquiry is recommended. Be prepared for basic living conditions and embrace the opportunity for digital detox and deep focus.
