“The opportunity to produce art without being pressured by everyday life commitments has been truly refreshing for me. Thanks to the two week residency and the financial support offered by Hambidge, I was able to fully dive into my music-making process without any distractions. Having no-Wi-Fi/no phone reception has been a great excuse for me to detox from technology and to disconnect from social media. Also, being daily connected and surrounded by nature has been strongly beneficial for my composition practice. 

I took some well deserved time to rest, decompress and explore the magic land of Hambidge. The Hambidge Center provides artists with a safe and inspiring environment which nourishes and enhances different forms of arts and allows residents to meet some outstanding human beings. Hambidge is a place of sharing, exchange, community, and love, and I’m sure the connections I made will last in time and will hopefully bring future collaborations with some of the fellow artists I met.”
