writ a letter using post (.) atelier – austmarka (.) no
We are open for silence retreat about 2 month every year. Atelier Austmarka is first of all a retreat for artists. It is not a space for promotion, exhibition, strategic networking, or facing a public audience. It is a space for reflection and rest in order to make space for something new.
this site is in the making…. and the application form for Silence-retreat doesn’t work yet
We do a lot of thing head on – and then we are able to get a lot don. But of course- something is hanging behind. We started making this Silence-retreat pages at the end of May 2024… if that’s a long time ago – please send us a note – then we have forgotten this special page…
We reuse a lot from our artist in residence page and therefore some information and photo is more related to Art-residency and not Silent-retreat.
