Lulama Wolf discussing her experience during Makwande Art Residency in Antibes, South of France.
Founded by Nomaza Coupez, the Makwande Art Residency Program fosters creativity, research, and experimentation through its international residency program for emerging artists. Our vision is to nurture emerging African female artistic growth and cultural enlightenment through mentorship and community. We believe that their voices, experiences, and creative offerings are unique and deserving of industry space. The residency aims to empower and champion equity in the arts. We create a unique opportunity for our artists to develop upward mobility and visibility in the international art sphere.
Undiscovered Canvas through Makwande Art Residency encourages crucial exploratory work, with a focus on the emerging contemporary art scene. The focus of the artist-in-residency program is providing individual support and establishing connections between the artists in the program and the wider international context, considering that the French Riviera was once home to the world's greatest modern artists including Picasso, Matisse, Van Gogh, Cezanne, Monet, and others.
