Art residency located at a vacation site on the west coast
This residency is located at a west coast tourist site on an island called Seongamdo, and has numerous advantages as an artist’s residence. The site boasts attractive scenery and competitive facilities. This has made it easier to overcome the difficult conditions of construction there, and leverage the island’s scenery into a unique advantage. The center develops specialized programs and has established its own identity as a result.
Synergy with museums
The center achieves synergy by cooperating with the Gyeonggi Museum of Arts. Gyeonggi Creation Center leverages the infrastructure of the museum to enhance research and creative activities. At the same time, the museum functions as an alternative activity to residency, extending the conventional functions of the museum.
