Dear Alex, my name is Noé, I am a French artist based in Amsterdam. I recently graduated from the Master of Moving Image of the Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam. I am writing you because I am interested in applying to the 18th Street visiting artist residency program. I would be happy to hear about your experience at the residency if you have a moment to share. Thank you in advance for the time (using an old tumblr account to write this :) Kind regards, Noé

Dear Noé, 

Thank you for writing, and congrats on your master’s degree! I stayed at 18SAC for all of March 2022, and recommend it highly. Everyone on staff was very supportive, providing visiting artists with many opportunities to hold one-on-one critiques, and/or gallery walk-throughs with other folks within the complex. 

That said, you have unrestricted solo time in the live-work studio, and access to a range of tech and tools. My stay was hugely productive (mostly writing, and developing a dance-theatre piece). 

Location upside: proximity to the ocean. Location downside: severe lack of culture in Santa Monica as a whole. But of course, Los Angeles’ galleries, museums, and film spaces are relatively nearby. 

Please don’t hesitate to follow up in future with any questions - i check this space only periodically but am always happy to help.

warmly,

alex
