44Møen invites applications for a two-week residency from **June 21 to July 7, 2025,** as part of its 2025 program **_Thin Places._**

  
This residency is best suited for artists working with text, performance, still or moving images, research, or sound-based practices. As a culmination of the residency, we invite the selected artist to contribute to a public event, sharing the work developed during the residency as part of their ongoing artistic research.

  
📍 Location: 44Møen, a contemporary art space in a rural setting on the Danish island of Møn, with a rich Fluxus heritage and a strong focus on experimental sound practices.

  
44Møen's 2025 program is curated by South into North (Francesca Astesani and Julia Rodrigues). It unfolds through artist residencies, new commissions, exhibitions and a rich public program focused on sound, all under the conceptual frame of Thin Places.

  
Thin Places are, according to Celtic mythology, sites where the boundary between earthly and spiritual realms is unusually thin and easily crossed. Inspired by this image, the program investigates spaces of mediation where different domains of experience become permeable. By stretching liminal spaces between digital and natural realities, technological and spiritual environments, visible and invisible realms, the project dwells in zones of passage and mediality. Grounded in the Kunsthal as a site of encounter between rural landscape and artistic experimentation, the program proposes ecological thinking as methodology rather than a subject matter: a practice of finding connections between systems - living and non-living - and exploring how different forms of experience meet and co-exist. Engaging with the existential anxieties of current environmental and political collapses,Thin Places navigates between worlds as a way to rehearse alternative epistemologies and ways of inhabiting layered realities.

  
Through a radical questioning of separations - not only between art and life but across artistic disciplines and languages - Fluxus artists explored territories of intersection and exchange. Their embrace of multiplication over originality and pioneering experiments with audio-visual media inspire the program’s focus on technologies of mediation. Sound plays a central role in this investigation. As an invisible yet materially present medium, it inherently challenges our usual categories of visually centered experience. Building on 44Møen's rich heritage of experimental sound practice - from Henning Christiansen's compositions to contemporary sonic investigations - the project explores how acoustic space can create its own form of "thin place," where physical and immaterial realities interweave.
