S+T+ARTS4WATERII is excited to announce the call for artists which is dedicated to water sustainability and innovation at the nexus of science, technology, and arts. This time, the programme has a specific focus on the environmental challenges of ports, port cities, coastal areas, and waterways. We  will support selected artists through a programme that includes a 9-month residency starting in September 2024 and multiple exhibitions and events during the residency period and thereafter until November 2025. 
VITO is the coordinator of S+T+ARTS4WATERII. The other partners of the consortium are TBA21 (Spain and Italy), Camargo foundation (France), WAAG Futurelab (the Netherlands), GLUON (Belgium), OGR Torino (Italy), ADAPT Research Centre (Dublin), Klima Biennale Vienna-KunstHausWien (Austria), Drugo More (Croatia) and PiNA (Slovenia).

Artists from all disciplines (installation, music, intermedia, design, sculpture, performance, visual arts, game design, sound engineering etc.) developing a collaborative work for the area can apply. A vision for engagement with the river with a view on overall enhancement of water sustainability or science literacy is needed.

Up to EUR 40.000 budget for artists residencies to cover the artist fee, the organisation and participation at artistic exhibitions/events and other relevant costs. Potential participation in exhibitions showcasing the outcomes of the residencies at Ars Electronica Festival in September 2025, Love Tomorrow Conference, the UN Ocean Conference and/or other venues.
