Nocefresca di Sassu Francesca

Planning your application

Artists should approach Nocefresca with a clear sense of how the Sardinian environment might inform their practice. Proposals that demonstrate a thoughtful engagement with place, whether through ecological, social, or material research, are favored. The selection committee looks for projects that are feasible within the residency's timeframe and resources, and that show a willingness to adapt to the island's rhythms. It is advisable to articulate a specific line of inquiry rather than a finished product, as the program values process and discovery. Applications should reflect a mature, self-directed practice and an openness to dialogue with fellow residents and the local context.
