This program will provide a dynamic space for artistic research and production, encouraging robust engagement between creative practitioners and their communities across the region. This year’s grants will support two works at the intersection of art, technology, and ecology and are open to creative practitioners from various disciplines, including visual arts, curatorial practices, design, film, video, and performance.

The Artistic Research Grant will facilitate in-depth artistic research, focusing on contemporary art and design, technology, and ecology. The use of Salt Research’s archival resources is encouraged for this research grant. The Production Grant will support an artistic production responsive to the dynamic, diverse, and evolving nature of the moving image. The scope of this grant includes traditional or expanded forms of storytelling, visual expression, and performance using film, cinema, and new media.

Applicants must be based in or from Türkiye.

Each artist selected will receive a grant of 20,000 EUR to cover their part of the production costs. The institutions will additionally fund a two-week residency in Spain, including the artist’s travel costs, visa application, and accommodation. In addition artists will be supported in the exhibition phase in 2025, and both institutions in Türkiye and Spain will cover additional costs for the presentation in line with the work or body of works they have produced as a result of the grant.
