Worshop developed by Collettivo Tutte a Casa, Valentina Valente e Francesca Angelini
Title: Archivi interiori – Occhi chiusi, mente aperta
Nationality: Italy (Rome)
Topic: auto-determination
Description: The workshop explores the value and creative potential of archives as places of living memory.
Starting with an introduction to the current state of public and private archives in Italy, we will delve into the fascinating possibilities of creative reuse, discovering how images and oral histories can be transformed and reinterpreted in new contexts.
In the second phase, we will draw inspiration from a photograph to guide participants through a practical and personal experience.
Through the technique of blind drawing, we will give shape to our inner images, transforming memory into an immediate artistic gesture.
“Archivi interiori” (“Inner Archives”) is an invitation to rediscover memory not as a static repository, but as an inexhaustible source of new creativity.
