Dragon Hill Residency
The Dragon Hill Artist and Writers Residency is a new addition to the community of Mougins from the co-founders of London-based gallery Unit, Joe Kennedy and Jonny Burt. Set in a historic “landscape home” designed by French architect Jacques Couëlle in 1964, the Residency invites artists and writers to escape the pace and pressure of the modern industry and create in response to the unique environment.
Guided by the visionary spirit of Couëlle, the curatorial direction of the program focuses on practitioners from all backgrounds who are already established, or who are developing their own distinctive artistic language. The residence and artist studios are set within a private domain amongst stunning gardens, inhabiting a rich ecosystem of wildlife. Here, nature, architecture and art coalesce to create a haven for artistic expression.
Artists and writers are in residence throughout the year, and members of the public can visit by appointment.
In the Summer of 2024, Dragon Hill will host a celebration in the Chateau Castellaras in Mouans-Sartoux, showcasing artworks from the Residency.
