Evaluation process<\/strong><\/p>\nApplications are first evaluated by the person in charge of the program at MAI, based on the program’s eligibility requirements.
Eligible applications are then evaluated by a committee made up of representatives from both organizations.<\/p>\n
The committee evaluates on merit based on the evaluation criteria of the program. At the end of the evaluation, the jury members decide whether to award the residency. The decisions are final and without appeal<\/p>\n
Evaluation criteria<\/strong><\/p>\nThe projects are evaluated according to the following criteria:<\/p>\n
\n- \n
\n- Innovative nature of the proposal<\/li>\n
- Relevance of the subject matter in the context of image-based artistic practices<\/li>\n
- Adequacy between the contents developed and the technologies used<\/li>\n
- Relevance of the projects connection in intercultural and\/or intersectional arts practice<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
Ethics<\/strong><\/p>\nCommittee members must follow Jury Member Professional Ethics Code and the Conflict of Interest rules.<\/p>\n
Response time<\/strong><\/p>\nPRIM and the MAI will provide a response within 3 months at the latest, after the published date of the call for proposals.<\/p>\n
Due to the large number of proposals we receive, only artists whose projects are selected will be contacted. We understand that a lot of preparation work goes into a proposal and we are appreciative of all the artists who share their work with us.<\/p>\n
