A little something that inspired our team this week.
At Studio Palco, we believe that if artists dedicate years to developing their work, we should dedicate just as much intention to understanding what helps artistic practices grow.
This page comes from Configurations of Time: Imagining Other Temporalities in the Artist Residency by curator and researcher Angela Serino (@mydarlingangy )
The book explores a simple but transformative idea: what if artist residencies valued flexible rhythms over rigid deadlines? It proposes three ways of thinking about time—space-time for creative growth, care-time for well-being, and soil-time for slow, sustainable development.
It’s a reminder that meaningful artistic practices aren’t built through constant acceleration.
They’re built through time, care, curiosity, and the conditions that allow ideas to mature.
We’re grateful for the artists, curators, writers, and researchers whose work continues to shape our own.
