Instinct Berlin Residenzprogramm

Instinct Berlin is an art organization founded in 2015 that runs a biannual exhibition and a residency program centered on queer identities. The Instinct Residency Program invites artists, academics, curators, teachers, activists, healers and other queer‑identified creatives from anywhere in the world to apply for a stay of up to six months. Residents receive a private studio (optional), shared work space, assistance from the Instinct team, and full access to the Village Berlin community centre, including workshops, a monthly salon, and the opportunity to present their work publicly. Depending on timing, residents may also take part in the biannual Instinct Art Exhibition. Accommodation can be offered on request (fees may apply), while travel and material costs are the responsibility of the artist. Applications are submitted via email with a portfolio, motivation letter, preferred dates, references and a project concept. No application fee is required and the call operates on a rolling basis with no fixed deadline.
