Titanik (Turku, Finland) and Sodas 2123 (Vilnius, Lithuania) invite emerging and established artists based in Lithuania to apply for a two month residency in Turku, during Spring 2027. The residency does not require the production of new works, or an exhibition output. The focus of the residency is to provide time and space to temporarily lean away from the intensities of daily routines, to focus on artistic research and to begin a collaborative dialogue with the local art scene.
In 2027, the Titanik A.i.R. programme hosts sound artists and collectives from diverse geopolitical backgrounds. It is informed by the understanding that sound traverses boundaries often imagined as impenetrable or permanent, whether political or material.
We are interested in sound as a space of collectivity and community building, and seek sonic practices that function as space-making tools—capable of fostering mutually challenging and enriching conversations, as well as expansive social spaces for critical thinking.
