La Maison

Frontpage made with Lay ThemeLA MAISON RESIDENCY PROGRAMLa MAISON residency wants to promote knowledge and consciousness about Ecological Grief - an emotional response to loss caused by environmental destruction and climate change. If an adequate reaction to climate change doesn’t occur, the next decade will confront us with even more catastrophic consequences such as food insecurities, infectious disease, complications from air pollution and extreme weather events. La MAISON wants to provide a platform to exchange ideas and discuss works that engage with ecological issues and poetic activism for more biodiversity and sustainability. La MAISON supports the production and development of artist who’s works make the invisible palpable and offer new insights and perspectives on the current situation and possible futures. Works that foster awareness, change beliefs and inspire change.The residency is an opportunity for artists of all disciplines and nationalities to focus undisturbed on their work, to learn, to change, or go deeper by doing and undoing or non-doing. The program comes without the constraints or expectations of any production. What happens on site happens. Situated in one of France’ most beautiful regions, the Bourgogne, La MAISON is located one and a half hour south-east of Paris in the historical village Brianny. The old spacious farmhouse is surrounded by lush fields and woods. Providing private rooms or autonomous flats and work spaces as well as a common kitchen and living room, residents can choose silence or company according to their needs. Everyone who once had a residency at La MAISON can come back anytime in the future - it remains „their house“. We hope to create a growing community with a sustainable bond, that carries new ideas into the world and home. Participants are asked to stay for a minimum of one month between June and October. In addition to a monthly grant, every artist is provided with accommodation and a workspace. Partners and children are welcome. Guests from various fields of knowledge production are invited to La Maison on a regular basis in order to share their experiences, visions and research.
