Are you a writer or illustrator looking for opportunities to broaden your horizons? Virtual residencies offer creative individuals a unique way to connect with people and organisations around the world, all from your own home.

In this event, Norwich residents Amanda Addison and Hsuan Pai are joined by Jakarta residents Noor H. Dee and Andina Subarja for an in-depth discussion of their virtual residency experience. Chaired by Tyas Widjati, the residents will explore how their projects came to life and what they have discovered about cities, stories and lives through the eyes of one another.

Amanda, Hsuan, Noor and Andina’s residencies were supported by the International Literature Showcase Collaboration Fund. The International Literature Showcase is a partnership between the National Centre for Writing and the British Council.
