residency26 at q-o2 in brussels

In 2026, Q-O2 will host 14 residencies in 2026 of which 7 for international and 7 for local artists (living in Belgium) working with, on or around sound. We are open for artists, art workers and theorists who wish to work on a research-oriented project (please mind that we do not organise residencies directed at production).

For each residency, we provide the necessary technical equipment, a travel allowance, and accommodation in the Q-O2 apartment for international residents. Residencies are usually between three and six weeks long.

Upon completion of the residency, a presentation to an audience can be arranged if desired but is not expected of the artist. What we require are some traces of the residency, whether these are left in word, image and/or audio form. If you are interested to get involved with the city and its inhabitants, we are here to help to make such meetings possible.
