215 Magill is home to a range of practicing artists and makers, showcasing the best in South Australian made furniture, art and design. Located in Maylands, there is a full machine shop for woodwork in addition to the studio space.
The Helpmann Academy 2023 residency at 215 Magill provides an eligible emerging South Australian artist with a unique 12-month studio residency. The residency at 215 Magill will provide you with the critical time, space, and freedom to evolve your practice, create new work, expose you to new networks and skill share.
You will have access to a full range of equipment and tools that you may not have been available to you before. The dedicated studio can enable you to expand your practice by experimenting with new materials and techniques or just simply having the physical space to work on larger scale pieces. Your practice and career will be developed throughout the entire residency as you are immersed in a busy, productive studio and workshop.
The 215 Magill residency will appeal to artists working across a wide range of mediums. The selected artist will be awarded a shared studio space, rent free for 12-months. The studio has 24-hour access, security and WIFI.
‘The quality of the facilities and environment at 215 Magill studios is exceptional. The culture is professional, generous, and collegiate. Studio tenants are valued and supported by owner Mark Jones, who goes above and beyond to help you achieve success. I have been able to push my practice into new areas of exploration and technical proficiency because the studio not only has the equipment, but a culture of success. If you are a committed and serious artist, then 215 Magill Studios is the place you need to be.’
Ellis Moseley, 215 Magill Residency participant
WHY APPLY?
A residency provides you with a dedicated studio space outside of your usual surroundings. For the term of the residency, you will have time and space for reflection and experimentation as you delve deeper into your practice, create new work, meet other artists, and be exposed to a community of creative practitioners outside of your regular network. By meeting other artists and makers, you will be exposed to new ideas and ways of working as you share more than just equipment.
