Nordic Analog Network offers supported artist residences (work placements) for photographers working with analogue photography. You must live in a Nordic country (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway or Sweden, including the Faroe Islands, Greenland and Åland) and apply to travel to a darkroom in another Nordic country than where you live.

There are six darkrooms, each inviting one photographer to a stay of between three and eight weeks in the period 2027. The darkrooms are located in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Scotland. The theme of this round is "sustainable photography", but you are free to work on your own projects as usual.

It costs nothing to search. If you are selected, you will get covered housing and access to a workplace in the darkroom, plus an artist fee of 15,000 NOK (18,000 NOK if you choose a more sustainable travel option) to cover travel and accommodation. The application is submitted as a PDF document with a short CV, bio, work schedule and pictures of your work. The application texts must be in English.
