The Cavendish Arts Science Fellowship at Girton College constitutes a rare and intellectually generous proposition for artists seeking to test the epistemic and formal limits of contemporary practice through sustained dialogue with science. Delivered by Cavendish Arts Science in partnership with Girton College and supported by Una Ryan, the Fellowship is explicitly structured around experimentation, decentring, and re-imagining, inviting artists to engage physicists and other researchers not as illustrative collaborators but as provocateurs of new aesthetic and conceptual vocabularies. Open internationally and unrestricted by medium, genre, or disciplinary convention, it is especially compelling for practitioners with no prior scientific experience, provided their work demonstrates formal rigour, conceptual ambition, and a commitment to alternative ways of knowing, particularly those emerging from communities marginalised by dominant cultural frameworks. The one-year Fellowship runs from October 2026 to October 2027 and includes a flexible Cambridge residency of six to twelve months, during which the selected artist receives a £10,000 stipend, rent-free accommodation and meals at Girton College, a £10,000 production budget, and up to £3,000 in travel support. A studio at Girton and access to the Cavendish Laboratory further position the programme as a genuinely infrastructural rather than merely symbolic commitment to artistic research. The Fellowship is part-time, permitting concurrent professional commitments where compatible, and culminates in the development of ambitious new work-in-progress shaped by interdisciplinary encounter. For artists invested in transformative methodology, decolonial inquiry, and the speculative reconstruction of knowledge itself, this is an unusually serious and well-resourced opportunity.
