Subscribe to receive new episodes straight to your inbox: https://installationartpodcast.com/subscribe In this bonus episode, host Anastasia Parmson explores what it really means to approach residencies as an installation artist. Beyond the logistics of time, space, and materials, we dive into bigger questions that shape the medium: • How to make large-scale, site-specific work in short timeframes and unfamiliar contexts? • What happens when you choose temporary or fragile materials instead of archival ones? • Is the value of installation art in the object, the process or the audience experience? • Could installation art be considered disposable or should we always aim for permanence? Drawing from a recent experimental residency at DRAW Space in Sydney, Anastasia reflects on the challenges of working fast, improvising with cardboard and collaborating with others. But more importantly, you’ll be invited to consider your own approach to residencies, materials, and the long-term value of installation art. Whether you’re an installation artist or simply curious about how these questions play out in practice, this episode offers insights and provocations designed to spark discussion. 00:00 Introduction and Listener Review 01:54 Invitation to Draw Space Residency 03:47 Challenges and Initial Thoughts 06:10 Execution and Community Involvement 08:21 Building the Installation 12:01 Final Touches and Open Day 15:43 Reflections on the Experiment 24:49 Conclusion and Future Plans Did this episode raise questions or spark ideas?
