Living Between Tides, during these challenging times…

is to join the unifying force between land and sea, and re-define the tidal border between human habitat and non-human life forms.


This art residency takes refuge in our deep connection with the sentient nature, to cultivate our ability of asking beautiful questions during crises, that set-sail the collective pilgrimage towards a positive change of the global future.



Between Tides Art Residency is a biannual event by Subtle Waters.
