Mission: Lijiang Studio’s main residency at Lashihai is in the town of Hainan, on the south end of the lake. The residency is immediately adjacent to a local family’s house, to whom we are very closely connected. Our goal is the meaningful interaction between local, Chinese, and non-Chinese artists, which contributes to the long-term development and stimulation of our community.
Cost: Artists are required to pay for their own airfare, internal transportation in China, appropriate insurance, production or project expenses. Lijiang Studio provides food, accommodation, and a certain amount of facilitation.
Application Fee: No application fee. Please message us with your inquiry.
Number of Artists: n/a
Accommodations: Lijiang Studio provides food, accommodation, and a certain amount of facilitation.
The Lashihai residency currently has 4 small double private bedrooms available, and a dormitory with 8 beds. The residency has a large shared kitchen and eating area, two showers, two sinks, and two toilets. As it occupies a traditional family dwelling, living and working space has limited privacy. Most meals are provided, as is wireless internet.
The studio spaces are shared, some are open and some are enclosed, suitable for a variety of work from sculpture to video editing. There is currently no special equipment. Three wide bays allow artists to work on messier things. There is some natural light in those studios coming through the side, though no direct or fluorescent lights to work at night. If you have specific questions about working, please get in touch.
