About the organization

WOMB MEXICO is an international residency program based in Mexico, founded to support contemporary artistic practices that engage with the body, territory, and the politics of care. Since its inception, it has operated as a self-organized platform, prioritizing process over product and fostering a community of artists, writers, and curators who work across disciplines. The residency provides time, space, and critical context for research and experimentation, often in dialogue with local communities and the Mexican landscape. Its ethos is rooted in feminist, decolonial, and queer methodologies, aiming to create a safe and rigorous environment for underrepresented voices and radical practices.

WOMB MEXICO — Open Call for Fall Residency

Taking part

Applicants should approach WOMB MEXICO with a clear sense of how their practice aligns with the residency's focus on process, embodiment, and social engagement. The selection committee values proposals that are conceptually rigorous yet open to transformation during the residency. It is advisable to articulate how your work would benefit from the specific context of Mexico and the program's collective ethos. While there is no strict format, a thoughtful artist statement and a portfolio that demonstrates a commitment to experimentation and critical inquiry are essential. Be prepared to engage in communal living and collaborative dialogue; the residency is not suited for those seeking isolation or purely studio-based production.
