Space to Create · Artist Escape

Space to create, nothing else to worry about

The vision

Founders of Vinyasa envision a space for artists where stay, studio and stage are all in one place — so the artist need not worry about acceptance, roof, food or travel, and can focus all their energy and soul in their art.

A home, not a residency

This isn't a program with a start and end date stamped on it. It's a home away from home — earth walls, open studios, a stage under the stars — built so the only decision left each morning is what to make.

“An artist for us is a person who acknowledges the artist in them.”

The philosophy behind Artist Escape

Eligibility

Who Artist Escape is for

Create art

An artist for us is a person who acknowledges the artist in them and the energy of creating art. 'Art' can span from a painter, musician, dancer, writer to a cook, designer, gardener, yoga practitioner, speaker.

Intent

You need to have an intent which you achieve with respect to your art while your stay at Vinyasa. Our support to make logistics affordable is because you show a commitment to your art.

Community stay

Mutual respect, tolerance & gratitude towards fellow members and surroundings is of utmost importance at Vinyasa Earth. This is NOT a vacation — it is an Ashram to connect with yourself and your art.

Apply for Artist Escape

Your application starts here

Vinyasa's artist escape program offers community dorm stay to artists so that they can practice their art and live it to its fullest. We share 3 wholesome meals (buffet) while you immerse yourself in the process of creation/research/study.

Over years we have realized that contributions towards food are necessary to keep this program running and for us to support artists. This brings us to super minimal contributions of INR 1150 /- per day for less than 15 days. INR 750/- per day for above 15 days.

There is no stated maximum period for the residence. Vinyasa has open gates for ALL ARTISTS WITH ALL ARTFORMS.

Since we have limited spots that we can host, we just want to make sure that the spot is justified and the artist gets to make the most out of this program.

Not sure if you are a right fit? Let's talk more on email (vinyasa.ashram@gmail.com) or Instagram.

Else, go ahead and take that step — Apply now!
