About Into the Wild
Into the Wild is an alternative artist development programme that offers 9 months of collaboration, mentoring and practical advice for emerging artists.
Into the Wild is about how to... thrive as artists, build a future in precarious times, navigate the first few years of your careers, support one another, start things, mess it up, keep going & create your own art worlds! Into the Wild includes...
Into the Wild is for... Emerging artists based in England in the first few years of their practice, outside of education (whether they have a BA or not). We want to build more inclusive art worlds and so actively encourage applications from artists whose experiences and practices have historically been sidelined. What Into the Wild Alumni say... "Fierce. Enlightening. Enduring" "ITW created a pathway for me to explore and own being an artist - the prospect of which felt very daunting before" "A real life line for my practice" "It felt really supportive and like we were building connections and a community" "Helped me to plant the seeds for the next few projects I'm working on" "The programme's emphasis on alternative ways of navigating the art world/art practice has been really eye-opening" "We were able to influence and shape the programme as we experienced it" "It demonstrated the multitude of routes that an artists could take; that it wasn't a one-size-fits-all scenario" |
