9 artists – 9 impREssions of Bangalore

After the long wait, the time had finally come: Slightly sleepy, but still very lively, the artists of the bangaloREsidency 2019 Season II emerged from the airport at 3.00 a.m. on October 20th.

They were greeted with jasmine garlands, a specially-assembled survival kit for first timers and a big hello. The mutual introduction turned out to be superfluous, as they had already identified themselves as bangaloREsidents on the plane and got to know each other over the first on-board champagne.

So, right after the must-take group photos, the bags were shouldered and loaded into the cars along with the residents, for the journey into the Bangalore city centre and their upcoming artistic projects.

For the next month or two, they will explore India through sound, textiles, fragrance and architecture, and work on their often participatory projects.
