2023 Creative Residents
Welcome to Our 2023 Creative Residents
We are thrilled to be able to welcome our newest class of Creative Residents to Bloedel Reserve. We can’t wait to meet all of the Residents and share with you the work they will be pursuing while they are onsite.
Field Notes
What exactly do Creative Residents do while they are staying at Bloedel Reserve? For some, it is an intensely private time of rest and reflection, a chance to recharge their creative juices. And for others, it’s a chance to experiment, play, begin new projects or continue developing works already in progress.
Field Notes let you explore Bloedel Reserve through the art, writings, and unique perspectives of those Creative Residents who have chosen to share the insights and inspirations they experienced while staying onsite.
