Life is Art is a hosted, multidisciplinary Artist Residency for women at any stage of their creative practice.
The Residency is self funded and self directed.
Exclusively offered to 3 Residents.
The Residency provides a curated container for 2 weeks in a private, oceanfront location in Playa Negra, Guanacaste, Costa Rica.
Resident Artist @pepallama will be onsite to guide and inspire you to Curate a Life that is a Work of Art, but you will use your time and space here as you wish.
Exploration of both the active (Yang) and contemplative (Yin) aspects of creativity is encouraged.
There is no expectation or pressure to produce finished work during your stay.
The invitation is to slow down, to connect to the ocean and the natural world surrounding it, be inspired by a tropical paradise outside of your usual environment, and explore your creativity however you choose. You are the Artist of Your Life: Life is Art.
