CYLAND MEDIALAB's RESIDENCY PROGRAM:
The CYLAND MEDIALAB's Residency Program gives residencies to individuals and participates in exchange programs, allowing artists space and resources to live and work on developing new media projects.
CYLAND MEDIALAB is located in the very center of Kronshtadt, in a park next to Marine Cathedral, the city’s main point of interest - a short distance with old dockyards and sailing vessels workshops, drawbridges, docks, locks and channels. The city’s unique historical and cultural background makes it ideal opportunity to develop public or landscape art and conduct research.
The two-floor residence building includes drawing-room, studio and two bedrooms. Today, the residency equips two to three artists with an ideal live/work space, complete with a studio, kitchen and lavatory. A modest showroom for exhibitions, seminars, workshops and accommodations for four additional people are planned.
CYLAND Media Lab participates in exchange programs of the Government of Nordic countries and Nordic Institute for Contemporary Art (NIFCA). As well, The National Center for Contemporary Art of St. Petersburg organizes visits of foreign and Russian artists by supporting group and individual projects. Artists from as far as Armenia, Great Britain, Iceland, Russia, Finland, France, Swiss, Switzerland have all been in residence.

About CYLAND
Thank you for posting my performance - Valu€s in Transmediale on your website. I met a really nice Russian girl, Tonia or Tina? (sorry, I am not sure about the name and spelling) at Transmediale. By any chance, is she working with you?
Will continue to explore your site.
thanks
