Cavendish Arts Science Fellowship at Girton College

Cavendish Arts Science creates collective encounters between art and science that explore our humanity, the world, and our place in it. We create new artistic work that questions traditional centring of voices and ways of knowing and looks to re-imagine ways of exploring material and immaterial universes.

We are seeking adventurous artists who challenge traditional ways of knowing, engage with communities, and enjoy collectively imagining new possibilities.

The Fellowship lasts for one year from October 2022, and includes residency in Cambridge of up to a maximum of a year.

We welcome artists working across any medium, including visual arts, performance, theatre, film, writing, dance, music, sound, architecture, spatial and social practices, technology, digital or experimental practices. With a practice of embedded working in communities, especially those beyond traditional institutions and mainstream spaces.

What you get: The artist will be have the opportunity to work with physicists at Cavendish Laboratory of Physics at Cambridge University. They will also become part of the CAS network. Financial Support: A stipend of £10,000 GBP will be paid to the successful candidate. All accommodation and meals will be provided by Girton College during the residency in Cambridge. A budget of £10,000 GBP will be made available to support the development of new work. Travel to and from Cambridge for the residency will be paid for up to £3,000 GBP.
