Toma House Air

TOMA HOUSE AIR is a nomadic artist residency program initiated by the TOMA Foundation, an organization rooted in the legacy of the experimental art school TOMA (Taller de Otra Manera) founded in Buenos Aires in the 1970s. Rejecting the fixed-studio model, the residency operates as a peripatetic platform that convenes artists, thinkers, and practitioners across diverse geographies to interrogate the conditions of collective life. Its core mission is to foster critical and collaborative practices through sustained dialogue, site-responsive research, and public engagement, with each edition structured around a thematic inquiry such as the inaugural call 'How to Live Together?'. Rather than offering production facilities, TOMA HOUSE AIR positions itself as a discursive and relational space. Residents are invited to participate in seminars, workshops, and communal living experiments that challenge conventional notions of authorship and hospitality. The program emphasizes process over product, encouraging participants to test ideas in dialogue with local contexts and communities. By maintaining a lightweight, adaptable infrastructure, TOMA HOUSE AIR seeks to remain responsive to the urgencies of the present while honoring TOMA's historical commitment to art as a tool for social transformation.
