The main idea of the type of the Art residency we offer is to connect the artists from all over the world to travel and create together, do collaborative art works, discover the folk arts and culture of indigenous people.


The participants of the residency will be given a unoque opportunity to stay and create together with the local folk artists and craft holders.


We do believe that the collaborative aspect while exchanging ideas, techniques and skills is important for the artists. And we do believe that the dialogue between the cultures, personalities, old an new can guide the artists to a new ways and forms of expressing their creativity.


As organizers we have chosen the unique places of India, rural areas in the state of Odisha rich with the craft arts and culture.  As an artists we are interested in discovering and promoting the art, cultural heritage and unique culture of Odisha.


The project is important for the contemporary art scene of Odisha area in India. Cultural collaboration where East meets West will receive a public attention and will guide to a new steps and platforms in contemporary Art scene.


The aspect of sharing by traveling, living, creating, communicating, promoting the ideas of humanism is the basic path of the project. Also it is an opportunity to discover new-old form of life and innerself. It is a unique opportunity to live a different type of primitive living – green living – eco living.
