The Digital Residencies series invites authors to reflect on Esse’s print and digital archives. The invited participants will each produce an essay inspired by different articles or thematic sections published over the years in Esse magazine or on esse.ca. Through their own research, the residents will bring to light writings that engage them and that contribute, even today, to reflections on art. All of the original essays and the archival texts are available in free access in our “Columns” section.
