WHAT IS THE ENSO CIRCLE?
The Enso Circle is an invitational art residency, a dedicated three-month time period in which
Residents join a community of creators for a specific self-chosen goal that is unique. The online
residency provides the comprehensive artistic support that allows artists to focus and
strengthen their work.
Those who are accepted have access to workshop sessions, a private online library of resources,
regular Zoom critiques and group discussions, and presentations with guest artists. During the three
months there will be opportunities to share work in process, troubleshoot stuck points, get positive
and supportive feedback, and meet one on one with Lyn and/or Michelle. The residency culminates
in a shared online exhibition and catalogue.
WHO IS THIS COMMUNITY FOR?
Artists who are ready to focus on a conceptual goal in their studio practice through flexible structure.
A goal might be a social theme, an exploration of media, a series of work that analyzes personal
struggles or celebrates overcoming difficulty.
It’s also a space for those who feel stuck, who may need the externally imposed order of a
community of creative colleagues, and who value the exponential wisdom of the group.
Finally . . . .
If you feel the need for a balanced experience that encourages both personal creative time and
guided encouragement from like-minded working artists, you will find a home in the Enso Circle with
Lyn Belisle, Michelle Belto, and your fellow art Residents.
