For ten days each summer, artists will exhibit in the barn in Siggen.The exhibition will not only be open to the guests of the Siggen Seminar Centre, but also to the general public. For the exhibition period as well as for the time of construction the artists are invited to live and work in an apartment in Siggen.

The artists invited to participate in the project are not expected to leave behind completed works, but rather they are being offered the opportunity to employ the space with the aim of revealing the underlying process of their creation, by any means of their choice.

All former artists of the residency are invited to nominate one artist/artist group for the coming year. Former members must not however nominate a compatriot. Through a closed section of the Komplex website, the former artists then select one nominee. The person getting most votes is then invited for the residency the forthcoming year.

Komplex is an ever changing whole composed of numerous intricate interwoven components that are innately related. In this way the project will continually develop from year to year as an organic structure. Komplex is manifested on the website in its entirety as a conglomerate of documentations of the work and references to ideas pertaining to the working process.

As Komplex grows through the years, an imaginary place will be created: locos – an expanding and boundless space. A site specific project that nonetheless breaks free from the confines of the physical space.
