L’Œil de Poisson, contemporary art gallery and production center in Québec city (Canada),
is offering an artist the chance to present his or her work in its main gallery, following an
in-house research and production residency. Highly involved in inter/multidisciplinarity, the
centre promotes experimental art and breakthrough practices.

The residency will take place over a three-month period (mid-October to mid-January). It
is primarily for artists who require the use of the wood and/or metal shops throughout this
period as part of their installative, sculptural or multidisciplinary practice. While developing
his project, the artist will have access to the center’s equipment and to a large shared
workspace where many artists from the Quebec City region work under the guidance of
professional technicians.

The chosen artist will be provided with accommodations and a per diem for the entire
period. The artist will pay for his travel.

DEADLINE: October 15th, 2015
