DESCRIPTION: 33 Officina Creativa (33OC) Artist Residency program was developed to become a space & community where international artists can share places, experiences and sensibilities. The aim of the residency is to challenge perceptions about how Art is made and integrated in everyday life by devising unconventional scenarios for introducing ideas into the public realm.
Conceived of as a regenerative intercultural meeting place, the residency program is aimed particularly at international artists who are enthusiastic about working within the Toffia environment, and who are energetic about making connections in this context.
The program offers artists the opportunity to confront new ideas or experiment with their work and the particular territory of Sabina region. We wish to improve artists' ability to pay attention to the constructed & natural environment and, eventually, to find new ways of interaction between art, society and the territory.
