Art Residency

Studio Dragonfly is a collaborative venture by a group of practicing artists who believe a collaborative and cultural exchange enhances the creative process. We at Dragonfly work on exclusively hand crafted ceramic tableware as well as sculptural works. Our commissioned projects include murals, paintings, large-scale outdoor sculptures and anything exciting that comes our way.

Our most recent project is a Residency Program we are offering at the cultural city of Baroda, India. The residency aims at interaction with artists from various places and working in different mediums. Although the studios are equipped to host Ceramic and Painting artists, we are also open to photographers, architects, writers who wish to spend time in the Baroda, which is an art hub of sorts, with over 1500 practicing artists living there. A significant centre for the contemporary Indian art, it is a thriving yet cosy town full of art and art activities. The art college, community work spaces and art galleries amongst the large number of artists here, make Baroda an enriching place to work in.
