Greywood Arts has announced an open call for a unique Space Waste artist residency. The one-month sculptural project examines the debris produced by the acceleration of space technology and is supported by Cork County Council.
The residency is a unique chance to re-purpose technological components that can’t be recycled and see what emerges creatively from space waste, explained
Jessica Bonenfant, Artistic Director at Greywood. This collaboration will give an artist working three-dimensionally the chance to visit the National Space Centre to collect materials and investigate the other-worldly campus environment.
