PTNLS is a contemporary visual art initiative from the city of Kingston. It was founded as a place for visual artists who are making work in dialogue with contemporary issues to experiment with new ideas. Interdisciplinary collaboration and open access are principles at the core of their operations.
The goal of NLS is to support visual artists whose practice is based in relentless experimentation, and to connect them to the global contemporary art community. NLS do this by providing structured support through an artist residency and exhibition program.
