Isla de Crear is a creative centre, combining a range of different disciplines in order to
explore creating and crafting in a new method, away from commercial constraints or industry guidelines, based on the principles of the Fantasism manifesto.
For our last call-out in 2024, we are looking for artists, craftspeople, thinkers and creatives from all different fields to explore the theme: Subversion Matters
We are purposefully keeping the theme as broad as possible, and encourage you to think as tangentially as possible. We are not looking for the same ol’ works, but instead want to encourage all our visiting creatives to challenge themselves into doing new things and exploring new forms.
This residence is for:
- those who want to challenge their usual work and the process of creation
- those who want to go deeper into the process of creation for the sake of the process itself and not for the result
This residency is NOT for
- those looking for community and networking
- those who are not comfortable with solitude and isolation
Expectations towards the artist
The aim of the residency is to investigate new forms of working and to create outside of the artists’ comfort zones. We want creatives to explore, experiment, take risks and focus on experimentation and not on results. For that reason, IDC does not offer an exhibition/performance at the end of the process.
Accommodation
We offer all creatives a private en-suite bedroom (with a toilet and shower), with shared living spaces, including: a kitchen, a large living room, laundry facilities, a library and several indoor and outdoor working spaces.
Isla de Crear is located 7 KMs from the nearest town of Úbeda,in the Jaén region of Andalusia, southern Spain, where the sun is out 300 days of the year, in the middle of the Sea of Olives, with no neighbours for miles, but we are by a main road (so it can get noisy sometimes).
Úbeda is a UNESCO world heritage site and home to a community of artisan craftspeople and cultural events.
Do note that there is no public transport available between the centre and Úbeda, but we do offer regular rides to town for shopping and there is a taxi service available.
Disciplines, work equipment and assistance
We welcome artists and creatives from all ages, disciplines, backgrounds and nationalities. We particularly encourage people who are looking to make new links between different forms. Apart from your own private bedroom, you will receive a private or shared working space (depending on your needs), as well as use of the different studios and workshops. We welcome groups/companies wanting to apply together, especially for the performing arts, but please note that each creative will need to pay a separate participation fee. For groups of 3 or more, do get in touch for discounts. If you would like to bring in performers for a short period during your residency, please discuss with us. We recommend creatives bring their own materials/tools. We may be able to help purchase materials for you, so do feel free to reach out to us to discuss your needs.
Studio / Workspace
We offer 8 different work spaces, a 50 sqm dance studio with a wooden floor, which can be used for rehearsals, workshop spaces with machinery, some materials that can be repurposed, access to an office and supplies, a library, outside spaces, adorable animals and our support and advice. We also have a wood workshop and metal welding areas.
Fees and support
Participation fee: €909.10 (+ 10% VAT = €1,000) for 4 weeks between 18/08-14/09.
This fee goes towards running costs of the property, utilities (Wi-Fi, water, electricity, cleaning supplies, etc…), upkeep of the facilities, administrative tasks, and consultations. The fee also covers a pick-up and drop-up from Úbeda bus stop, or Ubeda/Linares train stations. If you are selected as one of our participants, you will be required to pay a deposit of €300 within 5 days of your acceptance, to secure your place. This deposit will be returned at the end of the residency, upon inspection of the room, assuming there were no damages. Creatives should cover the participation fee, their travel costs, daily expenses, and cost of production of personal works beyond basic supplies provided by the residency.
