The Jaunt

The Jaunt’s mission is to catalyse progress and feed fresh insight into the artistic practice of artists. The first step in this process is taking the artist out of their comfort zone and allowing them experience completely new surroundings.

The concept is simple: send an artist on a trip to find inspiration. There is no agenda or a briefing for the artist during their trip. The artist makes their own plans, while the artist is on the road, they document their impressions in a travel blog which gives even more insight into the artist’s perspective.

After the artist returns home from their trip, the artist channels all of the impressions into an artwork that is reproduced as a limited edition and handmade, silkscreen print. It’s a unique travel document in the form of an artwork.
