Participate in Stockholms studentbostäder’s Art Project 2024
– create an artwork and win a gift card worth 10,000 SEK
Stockholms studentbostäder invites all students studying an art education (minimum 60 credits) at an SSCO-affiliated art school/art academy to participate in our art project 2024. The project takes the form of a competition where the creator of the winning work will receive a gift card that can be used in a large number of stores (food, clothing, furniture, etc.) worth 10,000 SEK.
The task is to create a site-specific permanent artwork for the wall at the entrance of our student housing building Idun at Norra Stationsgatan 99 in Stockholm, see measurements in the picture below. You compete by submitting a sketch proposal of your work and a detailed description of the work on a maximum of one A4 page, describing the work, how it will be produced, and the idea behind it. Also, attach pictures of three previous works you have produced, or a link to a website or social media profile where we can see previous works. The artist must also submit a budget for all costs for materials, implementation, installation, and any other costs that may arise. The budget must be realistic and must not exceed 50,000 SEK. Once we have chosen a winner, the artist produces the work and arranges the installation, within the framework of the submitted budget.
- The deadline for the competition is August 18, 2024. Send your submission to konst@sssb.se by August 18, 2024.
- The deadline for the completion and installation of the work is October 18, 2024.
- Inauguration around October 23, 2024.
Competition rules: Participating artists commit to completing the project and creating the work according to the submitted sketch and budget if they win. The work must be permanent. The work must not require continuous maintenance or extra care by our management and cleaning staff. The material and design are optional, but it must be a work that can be attached/hung on the wall. The winner is chosen by Stockholms studentbostäder and the prize is awarded at the inauguration of the completed work. Read more about Idun at sssb.se.
