The House of All Beings - Autumnal Equinox Residency 2023 Presentation
September 23, 2023 – Grasse
This residency, curated by Angelo Plessas, boasted a carefully selected coterie of participants, including the artists Eleni Bagaki, Asli Çavuşoğlu, Alex Cecchetti, Raffaela Naldi Rossano, and the writer and curator Filipa Ramos. The residency program provided an immersive ritual for artists to collaborate and create, drawing inspiration from nature, mythology, technology, anthropology, and philosophy.
“The House of All Beings” took its inspiration from the profound discussion on the relationship between the home and the psyche, drawing a parallel with Carl Jung’s dream of a house as a tool for the discovery of the unconscious. Our homes are our sanctuaries, and the physical environment is intrinsically linked to our well-being and character. The residency was built on this concept by creating a communal space where the invited artists came together to explore the profound relationship between the individual psyche and nature.
The Moulin des Ribes, with its lush gardens, serene lake, verdant meadows, and glistening river, became a place of encounter and exchange of ideas, where the artists were free to explore and connect in a spirit of self-made domestic sacred spaces. Here, conventional rules did not apply, and the aim of the residency was to connect, stumble upon, discover, and create meaningful connections between humans and beyond. The residency was a transformative experience, which provided a space for the artists to collaborate, experiment, and create in a spirit of innovation and exploration.
