The Unconformity Artist in Residence Program supported artists in spending extended time in Queenstown on the West Coast of Lutruwita/Tasmania, allowing them to immerse themselves in the region's cultural, social, and environmental fabric.

More than a traditional residency, the program offered time and space for artists to live, think, and create in place, without the pressure of a public outcome. It was designed to build relationships, test ideas, and deepen artistic practice through long-term, meaningful engagement with the West Coast.

The Unconformity acknowledges the palawa people as the original and traditional custodians of Lutruwita/Tasmania. We commit to working respectfully to honour their ongoing cultural and spiritual connections to this land.
