DOM Art Residence

In August 2025, DOM Art Residence, in collaboration with ExtrArtis, held its third residency in Sorrento at Relais La Rupe, a 16th-century villa surrounded by lush gardens and ancient ruins. Over the course of the program, twelve international artists explored the theme “Reimagining Genius Loci: how the movement of people and traditions shapes the Spirit of Place and new communities.” Through workshops, lectures, and artistic experiments, participants engaged with the cultural and historical layers of Sorrento, reflecting on how migration, heritage, and local context intertwine. The residency became a living dialogue between place, tradition, and contemporary artistic practice.

DOM Art Residence

“What can we do to deserve the attention of aliens?” has been the question that focused the theme of the second edition of DOM Art Residence. This year's thematic proposal, was inspired by the thought of Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek, who believes that the human inability to avoid catastrophes (ecological, nuclear or other forms of global crises) may be the reason why intelligent extraterrestrial beings have not contacted our species. In this context, the exhibition poses a crucial question: could art be the key to altering our destiny and making us worthy of extraterrestrial interest?

Hybrid
Art Fair

DOM Art Residence presented the project "OUTSIDE," meticulously designed for participation in the HYBRID Madrid Art Fair. "OUTSIDE" epitomized a distinctive site-specific exploration of the intricate nuances of the theme of reality and the intentional divergence from it. The curated works of four distinguished artists—namely Irina Drozd, Juan Priego, Cabanes Fontao, and Rahim El—each adept in diverse materials and techniques, extended an invitation to traverse collectively through an immersive journey of exploration and contemplation within parallel realities

DOM Art Residence

DOM Art Residence’s first theme was Censorship and Self-Censorship. We invited artists to explore the force that limits their creative expression in the modern day. Throughout the month, they worked on this specific theme, and the public had the chance to visit the residence, witness the creative process, and meet the artists.
