RESIDENCY

Twice a year Landskrona Foto Residency welcomes an early to mid-career photographer or artist working with photography and/or lens-based media, who wishes to further and challenge their practice, to Landskrona, to engage in a project related to the city.

PRACTICAL INFO

Our residency program is an opportunity for a non-Swedish photographer or artist working with photography and/or lens based media to have time and space away from their usual environment and obligations. The residency takes place for 6 weeks during the spring and in the autumn. The residency photographer receives a grant of 15000 SEK (approx. 1500 EUR), travel expenses to and from the home country (economy only), an apartment in Landskrona, and an office space with Landskrona Foto crew. Landskrona Foto connects the photographer in residency with regional-based photographers, artists and other art professionals through meetings, mentoring, exhibition openings and other networking opportunities.

HOW TO APPLY

For the residency periods in spring 2027, the artist residency will be carried out in collaboration with the Casa Planas Foundation. You can find more information about who is eligible and how to apply here.

The next residency period open to applications from photographers based outside Sweden will be ahead of autumn 2027.

AUTUMN RESIDENCY 2026

We are pleased to welcome Toma Hurduc to this autumn’s residency at Landskrona Foto, as part of our collaboration with Centrul de Resurse în Fotografie (CdRF) in Bucharest, Romania.

During his residency, Toma Hurduc will explore local folklore, myths and urban legends, investigating how stories come to be regarded as historical facts. By juxtaposing stories from the region with contemporary-day Landskrona, he aims to challenge notions of truth and credibility and explore the role of photography in how we document and understand reality.

Toma Hurduc (b. 2001) is a visual artist based in Bucharest, primarily working with documentary photography. With a background in cinematography from the National University of Theatre and Film I. L. Caragiale, he works at the intersection of documentation and fiction, weaving personal experiences and encounters with people together with imaginative elements. His artistic practice revolves around questions of memory, the perception of reality and contemporary sociopolitical conditions.
His work has been exhibited in Romania, France, the United Kingdom and Norway, among other countries. In 2025, he joined the Futures Photography network and was longlisted for the Ian Parry Photojournalism Grant.

Centrul de Resurse în Fotografie (CdRF) is a photography resource centre in Bucharest dedicated to promoting photography as an art form and strengthening the Romanian photography scene. Through educational programmes, workshops, exhibitions and professional networks, the centre creates opportunities for photographers to develop their artistic practices and exchange experiences. CdRF serves as a meeting place for photographers and other practitioners in the visual arts, working to increase the international visibility of Romanian photography.
