This is the first-ever home residency project
in Russia that was created for artists and by artists.
The project is unique in being located right
in the home of one of Pomidor art group members — Maria Sarkisyants.
The home has a spacious workshop with
a mezzanine and a separate entrance,
allowing the resident to enjoy a sense of freedom and privacy.
At the same time, there is always the opportunity
to interact with the Maria’s family in the living room,
dining room, or garden.

Conditions:
The Pomidor residency does not have a traditional open call. Ours is a ‘flipped residency’, conceptually comparable to the ‘flipped classroom’. Artists regularly have to go through rejections from various institutions. In our residency program, we leave
the choice up to them and send out invitations
to the people who interest us.
In choosing a candidate, we ask ourselves “who will come to us”, rather than what they may produce
in the course of their presence. What happens during the residency Our wish to see many diverse people in the future. Not just artists — philosophers
and scientists — those who need privacy
and a change of scenery for their work.

Open call
The program of the residency is different
for every participant. Meetings and public
events will regularly occur on weekends.
An active online and offline program would
be expected of the residents, providing them
with a platform to share their values
and latest projects.
We also invite beginner artists to come over
on weekends and take part in masterclasses,
portfolio reviews and public talks given by the residents, as well as to view our residents’ broadcasts and get in touch with them online.
This presents an opportunity to receive feedback from experts in a diverse range of fields.
