Who can apply? ‍

Densi welcomes artists of every kind — painters, sculptors, ceramicists, florists, musicians, dancers, writers, photographers, and every creative in between. If you make things, Densi is for you. Applicants must be 18 or over.

How do I apply?

Each residency listing on the Densi website has its own application form. Tell us about your practice, share a short proposal, and include links to your work. That's it — no lengthy paperwork, no academic language. When the Densi app launches, you'll be able to create a living artist profile and apply directly through the app too.

How are artists selected?

The Densi founders personally review every application and present a shortlist to the host. The final selection is made by the host in consultation with Densi, based on the fit between the artist and the space. You'll hear back either way.

How long is a residency?

Most residencies run between one and two weeks, though longer stays are welcome where the space allows. Duration is always agreed before the open call goes live.

What does a residency include?

‍Every residency is different — each host sets their own brief and terms. Details are outlined clearly in each listing so you know exactly what's on offer before you apply.

Where are Densi residencies based?

‍Densi is a global platform built for artists and spaces everywhere. Our current listings are based in Australia, with more being added all the time.

What is the Densi app?

‍The Densi app is the next chapter of the platform — coming soon. It will bring everything you love about the website and take it further. A living artist profile, smart residency matching, and a global community of artists and spaces all in one place.
