Blak Dot Gallery’s 2025 Digital Media Residency offers an incredible chance to dive into your practice with full access to professional resources, a dedicated studio, and personalized support from our team.

The Opportunity: Immerse yourself in a six-month journey to explore, create, and bring bold, experimental work to life in our gallery. Whether you're developing something brand new or reimagining an existing piece, we’re excited to showcase daring, tech-driven art that explores themes like social and political issues, future visions, climate change, and beyond. Let your creativity push boundaries and inspire change!

Whether you work with digital installations, interactive media, virtual environments, or video art, if your vision is bold and boundary-pushing, we want to hear from you!

This residency/incubation period is an opportunity to work with us on the development of your idea, project, with support to apply for more funding to support your vision if required.
