The Nachiri Routes: Biodiversity and Landscape
V edition of Baroque Blue Se-Art Residency
curated by Dores Sacquegna
Santa Maria Al Bagno, Lecce, Puglia, Italia
19 Septembre – 3 October 2026
Primo Piano invites you to join the fifth edition of its Baroque Blue Art & Nature Residency, an intimate gathering shaped by creation, reflection, and connection. It will be a journey into the bowels of the earth, starting from the hypogea and continuing on the surface, where olive trees – with the most extravagant shapes acting as solitary guardians of an ancient time. This residency will uncover the connection between Greek myth and culture, between history and legend, between cosmic caves and archetypes in the game of life and possibilities.
BAROQUE BLUE will take place from 19 September to 3 October in SANTA MARIA AL BAGNO, one of the pearls of the Ionian marinas.
Basic materials and equipment for working on site with painting, collage, drawing, installations, video, etc. are provided. The artistic residency will also include a 2-3 day immersive workshop on printmaking techniques, held by Italian teacher and curator Dores Sacquegna. Our spiritual guide Maria Maddalena Armenise will facilitate Yoga and Sacred Feminine sessions, including the final ceremony.
Primo Piano offers artists moments of relaxation by engaging professionals in the fields of music, theatre, dance, and performance. Meeting and dialogue with Apulian artists are part of the program. After completing the two weeks journey, the artists will be ready to set up and exhibit their works and will be awarded with a Certificate of Recognition. A web-page with artists’ biography and works will be posted on the network page of the Baroque Blue website.
