Descrizione

The residency, for an artist, means entering into territorial social processes, interrogating the landscape while taking care of the relationships that exist between the environment and human settlement.
For this reason, the residence has a significant value even in peripheral and marginal contexts, because it often becomes an instrument of creation and collective action for the transformation of imaginaries.
"Mystical Herbarium of the Apennines" is a personal, intimate reflection on how much the surrounding natural territory has always had an indelible influence on the birth of the mystical and sacred heritage of a people.
Myths, legends, ritual expressions, shamanic rites that have always aimed at healing and expelling the root of evil in human beings.
Alessandra Calò through an ancient photographic process (calotype) and Mara Redeghieri commenting with rogations and poems, retrace and return traces in our territory of the sacred and indissoluble bond between human creatures and wild creatures.
