CALL RESULT – Winter-Spring 2022 Residency – Writers

 

Within the framework of this jury, many applications were received from writers all over the world and a large number of them were of impressive quality. The jury very much enjoyed all the projects that were submitted and it has once again been challenging to make a selection. After spending hours debating, we select 21 proposals to ingrate the residency program (1 full invitation, 10 invitations#1, and 10 invitations#2). The jury took good care to extend invitations to projects that would be specifically relevant to the context of Can Serrat.

The Can Serrat staff would like to be available for anyone who did apply and wants to understand the result of this call in more detail; it seems important to take the time for that transparency and to offer feedback. Given the reality of our limited human resources and the amount of work to do by a very small team, it is a challenge to create that space. We, therefore, request that if you decide to ask us for feedback, please be patient, as it may take us some time to answer.
