What is AiR Nor-Ice?

AiR Nor-Ice is a 3-year pilot project to connect and expand networks and cooperation between professional art in the north – focusing on the connection between northern Norway and Iceland.

In Nor-Ice residency is eligible only for members of NNBK and SIM.

The basis of the residency is to share knowledge and experience and learn about each other’s art-political reality based on common challenges such as living conditions of the artists and the conditions for professional practice in Northern-Norway and Iceland. The exchange aims further to be a vehicle to strengthen and establish lasting relationships between professional artists and organizations in Northern Norway and Iceland to enhance cooperation, networking and reciprocal profiling.

The residence project was initiated by NNBK / The Association of North Norwegian Visual Artists and SIM / Association of Icelandic Artists in 2015 and is funded by the Norwegian Cultural Council, SIM and North Norwegian Art Centre, which is NNBK’s local project partner and residence host in Northern-Norway.

Previous Islandic residents part of AiR-Nor Ice in Svolvær:

«Staying at the Kunstnerhuset was a pleasant experience, a time to reflect and work on an inner process in my art practice. Working on developing different things while tuning in to the nature there. The studio I had was quite good, plenty of headspace and the feeling of staying in a residency on a small island fitted me very well. Staying in Svolvær gave me time to reach my thoughts and dwell with them in a meditative state. I managed to develop something concrete within me there and when leaving Lofoten I felt nourished. My stay there was a good jump off into a process of action after a period of contemplation.» Andrea Ágústa Aðalsteinsdóttir
