The time has come, our jury has decided.
Thank you for all the outstanding applications.
In short, here are the 3 artists our jury has decided on.

Klemens Hegen
Sounds of Disappearing Landscapes
Sounds of Disappearing Landscapes is an artistic research project that builds on his previous work exploring the relationship between humans, the environment and technology. It is conceived as the starting point for a new series of sculptures. At the core of the project is the question of how our relationship with and perception of the environment change when elements threatened with extinction as a result of human-induced climate change are artificially recreated.

Sofia Talanti
Cyborgs of Adaption under the Capitalocene
Building on her previous work with speculative soft robotics and cyborg figures PSY000T3, this project continues an investigation into how subjectivity is shaped through technological and infrastructural systems. Rather than approaching the cyborg as a futuristic or exceptional hybrid, the project focuses on it as an already existing condition: a form of everyday adaptation to systems of extraction, acceleration, and optimization that structure contemporary life.

Krystina Cyan
Digital Ghosts: Operational Bodies
Digital Ghost: Operational Bodies is an artistic research project investigating how computational systems construct, interpret, and govern contemporary forms of identity. The project explores the growing condition in which individuals are increasingly represented not through lived experience alone, but through continuously generated digital profiles composed of behavioral patterns, predictive models, biometric indicators, and algorithmic classifications.

Congratulations to the artists! We’re happy to welcome you in Salzburg next year.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll introduce the next year’s Artists in Residence one by one and share more about their work, so stay tuned!
