Stelo papermaking residency
In partnership with Pulp & Deckle Studio
The stelo (formerly c3:initiative) papermaking residency was established in 2014 to engage artists with little or no experience in hand papermaking, and offer them an opportunity to learn the craft and stretch the limitations of what the medium can do. Provided with instruction and guidance via technical assistance from a professional papermaker/artist at Pulp & Deckle studio and exclusive 24/7 access to the studio, residents create and exhibit new work.

​for six years, four artists were selected for intensive, month-long residencies during which they worked in the Portland, OR based Pulp & Deckle studio. Lead papermaker, Jenn Woodward provided guidance for residents to help realize their individual projects. She also educates and assisted residents with all equipment use, fiber preparation, cleaning, and any other studio needs. Upon completion of the four residencies, a group exhibition was held at c3:initiative or a partnering location.

​​The residency focuses on illuminating possibilities within the medium of papermaking and encourages experimentation, risk, research, and collaborative learning. The group exhibition highlights hand papermaking as a contemporary art medium. 

APPLICATION PROCESS
This program is organized by Stelo Arts + Culture Foundation in partnership with Camp Colton for 2022-23. Please visit the Stelo program page for more info on the residency.
