About the Residency
Seeds residency is a two month program for artists and creatives, with a focus on cycles, to connect with nature, find inspiration & engage in regenerative farming. Three artists will be hosted from August 18th to October 12th 2025, followed by curated exhibitions in Kalundborg and later in Copenhagen. During the residency, artists will receive mentorship from professional artists and participate in various artistic workshops which promote collaboration.
With a focus on network, immersion, oscillation and production, we aim to spread circular practices in art, while developing sustainable and sensory methods to convey the narrative of regenerative cultures.
Location & Facilities
The residency takes place at Brockhøjgaard, a regenerative farm near Holbæk in the Havnsø nature reserve. The farm, owned by Mette & Thomas, spans over 7 hectares and is within walking distance of the ocean. Artists will have the opportunity to engage with regenerative agricultural practices while developing their work in a supportive and nature-immersed environment.
