PARADISE AIR will be on sabbatical in September

The response to the COVID-19 epidemic spreads, which began in February 2020, has led to major policy changes and project cancellations and/or postponements at artist residencies across Japan. Many of the artists and staff members were hugely affected by the situation which they never expected at the beginning of the year.

At PARADISE AIR, we have been also faced unprecedented things that have forced us to make choices every day; “What’s the right thing to do now?” and “What could we do now?”

As the third term of the MATSUDO “QOL” AWARD will soon close, we decided to take a sabbatical from staff works at PARADISE AIR in order to rest our overheated brains and broaden our horizons.
We are collective freelancers with different specialties, and will be taking a sabbatical for working on other projects, doing some researches, or just relaxing to refresh ourselves.
