The successful applicant will be expected to spend a
significant amount of time in Dumfries. During this research period the artist
will conduct both archival and broadly engaged research. The Stove can assist
with meaningful connections to enable this process, however the artist is
expected to show initiative and have an outward facing approach to their
practice.
We are open about the direction the research may take, an
example of a stepping off point might include:- Dumfries Common Good
The Stove Network is an emerging artist-led organisation
based in Dumfries. The organisation is led by a Curatorial Team who in turn
lead a diverse membership in excess of 100 people in projects that work
creatively with local people in Dumfries and surrounding area to collectively
build a new vision for the town.
We do this through developing participative artwork
projects in public spaces, delivering workshops and training opportunities,
providing a hub for creative practice in our region and working in partnership
with other local organisations.
