1Shanthiroad

1Shanthiroad is an artist-run space in a 1940s Art Deco house in the heart of Bangalore, one of India's most rapidly transforming cities. Founded by artist Suresh Jayaram, the residency hosts international and Indian artists for 1–3 month stays, providing studio space, accommodation in the house, and immersion in Bangalore's growing contemporary art scene. The program is informal, affordable, and deeply embedded in the city's creative networks — a counterpoint to more institutional residencies.
