Do you have fully equipped ceramics, sculpture or printmaking studios at Jentel?
Jentel is a low tech residency. One studio has a Takach Garfield litho press with a 32 x 48 inch bed suitable for monotypes only. This studio also has a drying rack and roll of newsprint and is reserved for exclusive use by one resident per session. Assignment of this studio and press is made as part of the initial invitation to Jentel. How can I work without a fully equipped studio? Sculptors, ceramists, textile artists and artists creating in media that is often heavily based in equipment and technology intensive studio support have all come to Jentel and had successful residencies. A sculptor daily gathered found materials from walks around the ranch and completed a series of constructions based on tension and balance whether reflecting the idea in nature or in local community politics. A “subversive textile artist” shipped her sewing machine and thermo fax machine and created a series of politically based wall hangings. A film maker altered film in preparation for access to editing
