The TED & POSCA Global Artist Residency 2026 is an innovative residency program that invites artists from around the world to explore the theme of Visible Mending, which centers on repair, hope, and transformation as a lived practice. Selected artists will work within their own communities, developing projects that unfold in public space and invite participation, reflection, contribution, and collective imagination.
They welcome applications from a wide range of artists, including:
visual artists,
muralists,
interdisciplinary artists,
designers,
community-based practitioners,
collectives,
architects/spatial practitioners,
and creatives working across disciplines.
Projects may take many forms, including:
public installations,
participatory interventions,
collaborative processes,
performances,
temporary activations,
workshops,
story-based works,
or hybrid approaches.
They are particularly interested in proposals that are:
rooted in a specific local context;
participatory or community-engaged;
conceptually strong but logistically achievable;
visually and emotionally compelling;
open to documentation and storytelling collaboration.
