Artists’ Playground was a brand new and unique artist residency taking place in South Korea and held in partnership by National Theatre Wales and Performance Group TUIDA (South Korea). Artistic Director, Liara Barussi was selected after over 150 artists from Wales, South Korea, India and Japan applied to be a part.
The focus of the residency was to support the creation of innovative ideas, artistic experiments and cross-cultural collaborations. The residency explored various artistic practices including theatre, choreography, writing, live art, and installation.It was an opportunity for these artists to develop their practice alongside others – collaborating across artform on new ideas and sharing the results. The group also spent time reflecting on their current practice, as well as discussing and investigating the different approaches other artists take to making new work, ranging from the personal to the cultural.
