The designation of artists-in-residence encompasses a wide range of artistic disciplines involving collaborations between artists and hosting organisations, institutions. At the core of an artist's residency is an approach that provides artists with space and resources to support their artistic practice while working together with the host organisation in pursuit of a specific outcome or theme.
There is no pre-determined universal annual salary and each artist-in-residence is different. Any artist-in-residence programme funded by my Department would be covered by an open and transparent process, with the duration and remuneration advertised publicly.
