Egnared Eremitage Residency (EER)<\/strong> is an independent artist residency situated in the quiet inland of Halland, between the villages of K\u00e4llsj\u00f6 and Fagered in southwest Sweden. The residency offers time and space for reflection, research, and creation in close connection with nature and local life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main residence, built around 1850 with an extension from 1930, includes two bedrooms, a spacious living room with a fireplace, kitchen, bathroom, and studio space. Wi-Fi, a loom, and modern heating ensure comfort throughout the year. Just a few hundred meters away lies a lake with a rowing boat and fishing opportunities, and during the summer, sheep and cattle graze in the surrounding meadows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the far end of the garden stands Eremitaget<\/strong> \u2013 a small studio cabin with views toward a sheep pasture and an old mill. Built by the hosts with locally sourced timber, it serves as a peaceful workspace for writing, sketching, or reflection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each residency period is developed in dialogue with the artist, tailored to their interests and practice, and often connected to ongoing exchanges with artists across Europe. Recognizing that rural life can be both inspiring and solitary, EER also offers alternative short-term stays in Falkenberg<\/strong>, close to the beach and local art scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
