Ses 12 Naus is a not-for-profit organisation based on Ibiza committed to developing arts of an international standard. We run a residency during Summer on Ibiza — 12 artists and thinkers from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds visit the island to investigate, research, explore and produce projects. The name — Ses 12 Naus — roughly translates to ‘The 12 Vessels’. The aim of the programme is to introduce people to Ibiza who act as vessels: bringing ideas to the island, delivering contemporary international thinking, and taking inspiration from the artists and cultures they meet. The atmosphere of Ses 12 Naus promotes engagement with other artists in the group as well as engagement with Ibiza. Each artist produces a work during the residency which is shown publicly at the conclusion of their stay.
