Artist Residency in the Faroe Islands |
Located in the village of Froðba on Suðuroy, this house offers a quiet and remote setting for artistic work, reflection and extended stays.
The place is shaped by its surroundings – open landscape, shifting weather, and a sense of distance that allows for concentration and presence. |
A place for work and reflection |
This is not a formal residency program, but an open and informal opportunity to stay and work in a domestic setting.
The house is suited for:

Context and surroundings |
Suðuroy is the southernmost island in the Faroe Islands, known for its dramatic landscapes and slower pace.
