Visual and performing artists and art critics are invited to apply for the Sowing Seeds Artist Village Residency in Rajasthan - a 14 day collaborative residency (20 Dec 2015 - 2 Jan 2016) in a rural context, creating work focused on environment and social development.
“Sowing Seeds” is a project that intends to create dialogues and exchanges amongst artists beyond their national identity and serves as an opportunity for rural artists to meet, share and exchange ideas, visions, and diverse views in order to create a deeper understanding of art. It acts as a social environment developing and improving the artistic impressions of experts as well as emerging artists. As an alternative art space in INDIA, “Sowing Seeds” is geared to exchange the challenges required to organize such a contemporary artist village residency within rural areas and thus giving rise to a new era in art.
