The second edition of ”Un paese tutto per te.” (A town all for you.) confirmed the atmosphere of sharing and light-heartedness that had already emerged in its first edition. The peculiarities of the residency are not about the projects’ development or about the artworks themselves, but rather about the ability of living day by day a sort of productive experience made of dialogues, tales, moments that seem to be suspended in time. In addition to having gotten to know and visit the locations surrounding the hamlet, the artists inhabited the town alongside the vacationers and gradually settled in with the place and among themselves, also facilitated by the cohabitation in close contact inside the small house that hosts the residency: a place where we are crammed in about ten people and we share double beds with more than two people, even three actually! Here a convivial atmosphere is created, in which to confront and share one’s work with other artists and with the casual curious vacationer, as if making art would become something different, something new. This edition’s spirit was fresh, seemingly lighthearted but instead deep, enriched with moments like stargazing with the town’s lights off while listening to our murmoring, besides the natural sounds, a confusing yet familiar murmoring. The artworks that were born during the residency are the result of a research capable of giving back a sense of curiosity: that curiosity is no more than the actual being together during the week and setting aside one’s own daily routine, as it happens on holiday, because it’s actually here where one can comprehend what the everyday life truly is.
