Today, we will be discussing artists' residencies.

What are they? What is the purpose of a residency? How does it unfold?

We will answer all of these questions and I will share my experience with you: what I liked or less appreciated in the artists’ residencies I participated in.

Follow me in this new episode!

We are going to delve into the topic of artistic series, aiming to explore why artists often opt for this approach and the wellsprings of inspiration that drive them.

What inspired and motivated artists to focus on creating a series of works instead of individual pieces? What were their intentions behind?
Numerous artists spanning various historical periods and artistic disciplines have embraced the concept of series. Let’s examine some of them!

Today, I'm taking you to the grande halle de la Villette, in Paris, to discover a great exhibition, the Salon d’Automne, in which I am taking part. It is a vibrant and diverse showcase of contemporary art, featuring works from a wide range of artists and artistic movements.

Let's get started; follow me for the tour!
 

Today, I'm taking you on a special episode to the Louvre Museum in Paris. I'd like to introduce you to a magnificent exhibition entitled "Naples in Paris: The Louvre Invites the Capodimonte Museum," which will run until January 2024. This exhibition provides a unique opportunity to explore the connections between two great European cities and their shared artistic heritage.
 

Today, we'll be discussing mokuhanga, a traditional Japanese woodblock printmaking technique.

The story of mokuhanga dates back to ancient Japan, where it originated as a printing technique used to reproduce Buddhist  texts and images.
This technique is known for its unique aesthetics and is now adopted by artists to convey contemporary atmospheres.

Listen to this episode to discover more about this technique and to know how I use it in my creative process.
