Residency
The area surrounding Olevano Romano is an ancient cultural landscape. For centuries artists have travelled there to wander and explore, to study and portray its morphological and social dimensions. Today, glancing out a car window must generally suffice to capture this landscape as it is almost impossible to traverse on foot. During my fellowship at the Villa Serpentara, I intend to devote myself to the terrain and its trails. For this purpose, I plan action-oriented research along concealed and lost paths, as well as an exhibition and interventions that include the residents of Olevano.
