ANNOUNCING THE MOVING IDEAS RESIDENCIES
We are delighted to announce the Moving Ideas residents for 2025:
Ivey Wawn
Angela Goh
Linda Luke
Chris Gurusamy
Mym Kwa & Joshua Di Mattina-Beven
We awarded a total of 5 week-long residencies for our Moving Ideas program this year, adding some additional funds to allow one extra residency. The residencies will be happening in the studio from February - April. We look forward to sharing the resident artists' work with you over the coming months.
We want to thank all artists who put in proposals for this opportunity, and to thank Victoria Hunt and Lizzie Thomson who, alongside our Creative Producer, Jane McKernan, made up the panel making decisions.
The Moving Ideas Residency is supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW.

The residency is open to professional, emerging and established NSW-based artists working with dance, choreography and movement based practices.
Support:
• An artist fee of $1200 for 40-hours of studio time
• A collaborator or production budget of $300
• An allowance of $1000 for travel and accommodation is available for one regionally based
NSW artist
• Access budget allocation if required
Timing:
• Four 40-hour residencies are available to be undertaken from February to June 2025
• Residencies will be scheduled in consultation with ReadyMade Works staff
• ReadyMade Works will facilitate a closed showing event for invited peers and community at the culmination of residency period
