Wednesday 3 August, the "2°Piano Art Residency" starts again with a new look, an artistic residency program promoted by ZNSproject APS, curated by Margherita Capodiferro and the artist Cristiano Pallara.
From 3 to 21 August, after two years of forced detention due to the pandemic, ZNS will host Veronica Rastelli. The artist born in Switzerland and graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples, using different media, from painting to weaving, will develop her research by turning her gaze towards human relationships and the interconnection between man and nature. Trying to analyze the behaviors of our age, in which social and environmental interactions are highly undermined by technology and a hectic life, you will propose The Gunè | shared textile installation:
Gunè (derives from the Greek "γυνή", which means "woman", all that is feminine) is a tribute to women and the art of weaving. A tapestry to tell the territory, the landscape, women's work and the relationship with the patronal festivals. A textile story that develops slowly, slowly, in dialogue.
Discovering and listening to the territory, Veronica Rastelli will weave plots like a diary embroidered with stories, tales and words; She will evoke our link with the earth and with the present, trying to reclaim the past to develop, extend and expand it.
“2 ° Piano Art Residency” is an open, experimental, autonomous and independent space for artistic research on the territory, in this case focused on local weaving, and invites those who wish to be part of it by contributing with stories and testimonies.
To complete the path, also this year there will be artistic workshops for children aged 13 to 18 thanks to the project "Cantieri di Dinamismo sociale" - Puglia Region - Notice 2/2017 "Social anti-mafia construction sites: education for active citizenship and improvement of urban fabric ".
From 5 to 6 August, from 18:00 to 20:00, in Via Murat 9:
Gunè: Creative weaving workshop: looms will be made and each participant will be able to learn the weaving technique. The works will contribute to the realization of the shared textile installation (a collaborative work of several hands and several ages). This creative space will continue beyond the dates indicated: the artist will in fact ask for collaboration from women and citizens, to weave stories and testimonies on local weaving. The final installation will be exhibited on August 19th in Piazza Rota.
