Ptarmigan is no longer operating in Helsinki.

Ptarmigan existed as a project space in Vallila from 2009-2011 and a mobile curatorial/creative platform until 2014. We no longer exist as an organised collective, but this website will continue to serve as an archive of the activities produced as/at Ptarmigan during these years.

Axis of Praxis residency

Axis of Praxis is a joint residency programme shared between MoKS (Mooste) and Ptarmigan (Tallinn).

The programme will offer the possibility to research and develop work in and between two distinctly different contexts within Estonia. MoKS is located in a village in rural south Estonia and Ptarmigan in the capital city of Tallinn. MoKS is an organisation run by artists and researchers, with experience in organising a diverse program of residencies, art symposia, projects, workshops and more. Ptarmigan is an event-driven organisation that focuses on trans-disciplinary projects, building participatory culture and social practices.

We are currently seeking applications for 2014; please apply through the MoKS website. The programme is only possibly for residents of Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Denmark, Greenland, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania and the Faroe Islands so do not both applying if you are not a legal resident of one of these countries.
