Studio Faire

Studio Faire is an artist-run contemporary art space in South West France, offering residencies for writers, visual artists, musicians, makers, filmmakers, researchers, and all other creative practitioners.

Residents live and work in the house, studios and gardens of Studio Faire, a ‘Maison de maître’ built around 1830 and still retaining its period characteristics. It is the private home of Scottish couple Julia Douglas (Mixed Media Artist/Designer) and Colin Usher (Photographer/Musician/Designer).

The house is situated in the centre of the market town (and historic city) of Nérac, in the stunning Lot-et-Garonne region of South West France.

Residencies offer time to focus on research and development to inspire a new body of work or develop an existing project. They can nurture the growth of seedling ideas by giving the space to unselfconsciously experiment and play without expectation or obligation.

Studio Faire offers a change of pace and the space to create.
