Damaris Athene & Valentino Vannini

Studio17 Residency is pleased to welcome artists Damaris Athene & Valentino Vannini to Stavanger for the first Residency of 2026!

Damaris Athene and Valentino Vannini are exploring thresholds during their stay in Stavanger. They are interested in the borders between land and water, people and the social or commercial systems around them, or the boundaries between bodies. They are keen for the materiality of the Stavanger landscape to permeate their practices, making work in response to their embodied experiences.

Stay tuned for insights into their processes and announcements about events during their residency!
