Le milieu
Le milieu is the venue of the company Le Phare à Lucioles. Located in Mont Ventoux, in the south of France, in a small rural and isolated village, this creative center welcomes artists from all over the world for research and writing. Open to all contemporary practices, the milieu offers working, writing and research spaces to professional and emerging artists for residencies lasting from 5 to 20 days.
Available resources
Artists benefit from a working space equipped according to their needs and as much as possible. The company team (artistic and general management, technical management, production management, communication and mediation) supports the artists in their relations with local residents. Artists are housed in single rooms in an apartment located directly above the workspaces. Each artist receives a residency grant of €80 per day of attendance, including all food and incidental expenses. For artists coming from abroad, partial payment of travel expenses may be considered.
Outreaches project
Particular attention is paid to projects that consider the question of mediation at the heart of their creative process. Each residency must propose at least one mediation project aimed at audiences, to be defined in conjunction with the company’s mediation manager. A detailed presentation of the proposed action must be included in the application file.
Selection process
Applications are reviewed by a team of 9 people from the company. The selection is based on the creative project, the relevance of the residency application and the proposed mediation project. Total parity is respected in the final selection. Diversity of artistic disciplines is sought, as is a balance between the different types of residencies.
