Art and science are different ways of expressing our human curiosity and our desire to understand the cosmos. Both often involve dealing with the unknown. The Center of Gravity (CoG) at the Niels Bohr Institute (NBI) is a Center of Excellence where we strive to understand the gravitational interaction and the cosmos. The CoG is a hub for new ideas on the foundations of physics.  
  
We are currently inviting proposals for artist residencies of up to three months that engage with the research of the Center of Gravity. We welcome original, bold, and ambitious proposals. Projects may take various forms across artistic disciplines, including visual arts, music, literature, and others, provided they engage with themes such as black holes, gravitational waves, and the concept of time.

We are offering up to two residencies (running in parallel or not) which include the following:

*   A three-month residency hosted by the Center of Gravity at the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen, Denmark.
    
*   For applicants from outside Copenhagen, we cover travel costs and accommodation expenses for the duration of the residency.
    
*   Depending on needs, and on a case-by-case basis, a stipend may be offered to help cover production expenses.
    
*   A participative residency: regular meetings with scientists to discuss the artist’s project/work.
