At a glance
What this pathway means for you.
What CAVO may offer
Support shaped around the career.
Selected guidance, introductions, specialist capability, opportunities and resources, assembled according to context.
What remains yours
Your creative direction.
CAVO is intended to strengthen the conditions around the work, not standardise the work itself.
01Who it is for
A clear point of view matters.
CAVO is intended for artists building a serious body of work who may benefit from earlier access to informed support, relevant relationships and greater continuity.
02Selection
Work first. Context included.
Selection may consider the quality and clarity of the work, the coherence of the artist's direction, current career context, readiness for support and credible long-term potential.
03Support
Conditions for a career to develop.
Selected support may include strategic guidance, specialist capability, introductions, opportunities and resources assembled around the artist's needs. No specific form of support is guaranteed.
04Independence
The work should remain the work.
CAVO does not exist to flatten an artist's identity into a market formula. The aim is to strengthen the position from which the artist can make long-term decisions.
05Expression of interest
Tell us what you are building.
Submitting an expression of interest does not guarantee review, selection, funding, introductions or participation. It gives CAVO relevant context as the network develops.
06What to prepare
A concise view of your work and direction.
The guided form asks for enough context to understand your practice without requiring a full application.
- A portfolio or relevant work link
- Your discipline and current career stage
- A short description of what you are building now
- The kind of support you want to explore
07What happens next
Interest first. Selection separately.
CAVO may contact people whose work or context appears relevant as the network develops. A submission is not a selection decision and no response time or participation is guaranteed.
