Equilibrium – Artcore’s International Residency

We are so excited to announce that our first international residency programme of the year, Equilibrium: Art and Everyday Life, is now underway in Partapur, Rajasthan, India, in collaboration with Sandarbh (an India-based arts organisation).

Curated by Shilpa Rangnekar, this third edition of Project Equilibrium celebrates Artcore’s 30th anniversary and brings together a diverse group of talented artists from the UK and India to explore the intersections of art, community, and everyday life.

The Selected Artists:

  • From the UK:

Anthony Shepherd: Co-founder and Director of the Wireworks Project in Ambergate, Derbyshire, UK, Anthony is a conceptual visual artist known for his site-specific installations and interventions. His work often incorporates natural and recycled materials, connecting deeply with the surrounding environment.

Eva Joy Lawrence: A multidisciplinary artivist, Eva’s practice engages with themes of protest, connection, climate change, apocalyptic possibilities, and utopia. Her bold public interventions and community collaborations challenge conventional art spaces and spark meaningful dialogue for change.

  • From India:
    • Aditi Anerao
    • Deparna Saha

The Residency Experience:
The artists have already gathered in Partapur, where they have begun their four-week journey of immersion and collaboration. Working closely with women’s independent self-help groups in the local community, the residency focuses on co-creating new works and processes through collaborative dialogue and active participation.

Together, the artists and community members are brainstorming and producing unique artworks that embody an exchange of ideas, creativity, and skills. This partnership fosters cross-border connections, empowering both artists and the community to reflect on their shared environments and experiences.

Stay tuned for updates, insights, and the work being created during this residency!
