Video Pool Media Arts Centre is excited to announce the 3rd Video Commission Residency, VCR Vol.3: Temporal Landscapes. This residency supports the creation of new experimental screen-based works, inviting submissions from artists for a single-channel video responding to the theme of Temporal Landscapes.

For this edition, we encourage artists to explore the temporal representation of landscapes through the potential of digital media. Temporal Landscapes highlights the tension between time’s transient nature and the digital medium’s capacity to manipulate and distort temporal perception.

Video Pool Media Arts Centre is excited to announce the launch of the 2nd Video Commission Residency (VCR): Vol.2 Prairie Fever. VCR is a unique residency program dedicated to supporting the creation of new video-based artworks. We are currently inviting submissions from artists based in Winnipeg. Prairie Fever is a locally inspired edition that invites artists to engage with and reinterpret aspects of prairie culture. We are looking for applicants to creatively challenge and expand upon what is traditionally seen as quintessentially prairie, encouraging them to explore and represent the unique, critical, and offbeat elements of Winnipeg and its surrounding region. This residency offers an opportunity for artists within our community to immerse themselves in the city’s vibrant artistic and cultural heritage.
