Zo Studio Takeover

​“11 Artists. One House. A complete creative takeover.”

Welcome to Zo Studio Takeover — a three-day residency where 11 verified Zo Studio artists transform Zo House Whitefield from the inside out. Each artist is given a 5×5 ft zone within the house to reimagine, redesign, and leave a lasting mark.

​This isn’t just an exhibition. It’s a full-scale takeover — the house itself becomes the canvas. Over the weekend, artists build side by side while the community gathers for mafia nights, bonfires, brainstorm circles, and reflections. The final day closes with a walk-through showcase, where every corner of the house tells a new story.

WHAT IT’S NOT:

• ​❌ A formal gallery exhibition

• ​❌ A passive viewing experience

​WHAT IT IS:

• ​✅ A weekend of process-driven creation

• ​✅ A residency with bonfires, mafia games, and open mics

• ​✅ A Zo ritual where art, play, and community collide
