Description
This residency program offers a unique opportunity for artists and creatives to immerse themselves in a supportive and inspiring environment. The organisers believe in fostering a community of collaboration and innovation.
Det Vilde Spinderi boasts a spacious 180-square-meter area that houses both a showroom and exhibition facilities within the workshop. One of the unique features of this residency is the opportunity to work with locally sourced wool. Engage in the entire process, from freshly sheared wool to washing, carding, and spinning. Discover the versatility of wool as a medium and explore how this specialized knowledge can enhance and influence your artistic practice.
Through the residency program, participants have access to dedicated studio space where they can engage with like-minded individuals, exchange ideas, and gain new perspectives. The program is designed to encourage experimentation and growth, providing the time and space for artists to develop their practice. By supporting emerging talent and fostering a culture of creativity, the aim is to contribute significantly to the artistic landscape.
Outcome
The outcome of this residency program for participants is a transformative experience that enriches their artistic journey in multiple ways. Participation in the residency program offers artists and designers exposure to a wider audience through exhibitions, events, and online platforms. This increased visibility can help them build their reputation, attract new audiences, and potentially secure future opportunities for showcasing their work.
Participating artists and designers may have the opportunity to engage with the local community through workshops, outreach programs, or collaborative projects. This community engagement fosters connections between artists and the wider community, enriching both parties through shared experiences and mutual learning. Overall, the outcome of the residency program extends beyond the physical production of art or design work to encompass professional development, networking, exposure, cultural exchange, personal growth, and community engagement.

Location
The beautiful landscape of Odsherred is a sight to behold. The entire region has been designated a UNESCO Global Geopark due to its Ice Age landscape and the reclaimed Lammefjord's crucial cultural and historical significance. Odsherred's unique geology thus forms the basis for cultural, social, and economic development.
