The terms Residency and Walking contain juxtaposing senses of motion; to reside insinuates staying put whilst walking is about being in motion. ReRouting’s RESIDENCIES are about resting whilst seeking out new routes. ReRouting organises a variety of residency formats that take on different sites to stroll, sometimes solo and other times with others. The frameworks explore the use of walking as a studio, with streets and pathways becoming places for exchange, production, and research.

Our current residency formats include:

WALKING RESIDENCIES at Künstlerhof Frohnau
This residency brings together local, Berlin-based artists and cultural practitioners to spend a moment away in Frohnau forest that sits on the city’s edge. The site holds traces from the old route of the Berlin Wall. By walking the area together the residency is an invitation to exchange practices whilst also seek connections on once divided terrain.

STUDIO RESIDENCIES at Co-Making Matters / Haus der Statistik
This series of residencies responds to the current issue of sustaining artist studio space in Berlin. On invitation, artists are offered a container space on a 1-3 week basis, which acts as a place for rest and reflection as they use the local ‘Mitte’ streets as their studio and place of research.
