Art and science are different ways of expressing our human curiosity and our will to understand the cosmos. This often means dealing with the unknown. The Strong team at the Niels Bohr Institute (NBI) is a research group working on gravity, black holes and gravitational waves.

We invite proposals for artist residencies of up to 3 months, involving the science of the Strong group. We value original and exciting proposals. Projects can take various forms such as literary works, performances, art works or installations exploring the field of black holes, gravitational waves and the notion of time.

About the residency
We offer up to three residencies which include the following:

– A three-month residency working with the Strong Group at the Niels Bohr International Academy, NBI in Copenhagen, Denmark.

– For applicants from outside Copenhagen, we cover travel costs and accommodation expenses for the duration of the residency. We may also be able to offer a fellowship to partly cover living or other expenses.

– A curated residency: regular meetings with scientists to discuss the artist’s project/work.
