Ars Biologica is a living laboratory for shared ecological futures – an experimental space where art and science meet to explore ways of caring for the world we live in.
The ArtXScience residency is one part of the Ars Biologica project, a key pillar of České Budějovice – European Capital of Culture 2028. The aim is to explore how art and science can collaborate to address urgent environmental challenges, with a special focus on climate emergence, sustainable agriculture, geoengineering, permaculture, water resource management, and the broader ecological impacts on local communities.
České Budějovice ECoC 2028 invites artists, designers, creatives, and artist collectives to apply for a fully funded program designed for direct collaboration with local scientists. The two residency positions offer opportunities to integrate scientific research into new or ongoing artistic practices, culminating in a public presentation through the collaboration with Ars Electronica and other partners.
