RESIDENCY

Hyphenated Projects offer a space for development and experimentation from artists working in transcultural contexts. The residency offers artists, writers and producers access to a studio space within a residence that includes a full kitchen, bathroom, outdoor space and laundry. Residency period is negotiable and we welcome proposals all year round. Please note that we prioritise proposals from BIPOC artists.

CURRENT RESIDENTS

TRUC TRUONG

Truc Truong is an emerging artist living on Kaurna land (Adelaide), exploring variances between Eastern and Western thinking. Working with sculpture and installation, her work points to colonialism, exploring aspects of racism, hybridity and displacement, often through experiences and stories retold by her family.

​During her residency at Hyphenated Projects, she aims to build relationships with second-generation migrants in Melbourne’s west, which she hopes to enrich her own experience and practice. Her residency also coincides with Lunar New Year, which would contribute to her ongoing research into symbolism of festivities.
