A pilot programme by the Prince Claus Fund & the British Council.
Are you a socially and politically engaged artist or cultural practitioner with ± 7-15 years of relevant professional experience, who believes that culture can play a vital role in questioning dominant narratives and their role in our lives? Then you are invited to apply for the Mentorship Award: Moving Narratives!
Dominant historical and social narratives tend to exclude the experiences and stories of marginalised communities, silence critical voices, and erase, overlook, or at times over-emphasise differences. Presenting one-sided or partial accounts of history, these narratives often reflect systems of power and contribute to social inequalities.
Apply for this year-long multidisciplinary programme and join 12 experienced artists and cultural practitioners, supported by four mentors, who will collectively experiment, exchange, and develop artistic strategies that move our understanding of the past and drive our visions of the future in new directions through the affective, discursive, and transformative power of culture.
This pilot programme will adopt various interactive formats that range from workshops, reading groups, guest talks, and peer-to-peer review sessions. Most of the activities will be online, but the cohort will come together twice in person for the Labs (six-day intensive mentoring sessions). Within the framework of the programme, the cohort will collectively create a joint project in the form of a printed publication and an online platform.
Additionally, each participant will receive an award of €10.000 to work on the project or body of work outlined in their application.
