We are pleased to announce the names of the artists selected to participate in the Nomad Spirit project to be implemented in Mongolia from 20 Sep to 04 Oct 2024. The project received a total of 80 applications from Finland, Germany, France and Austria, and 12 from Mongolia. Selection committee members have carefully reviewed the applications and made the final choice of 8 artists: Amarsaikhan Namsraijav (Mongolia), Cornelia Konrads (Germany), Elparo (France), Elena Kristofor (Austria), Laura Merz (Finland), Munkhdorj Batdelger (Mongolia), Tuvshinjargal Lhasuren (Mongolia) and Zultsetseg Narantsogt (Mongolia). As many of the applications were truly fascinating, it was not easy for us to make a selection. This time, we paid special attention to local needs and preferences of local partners. Congratulations to all selected artists!
